Hello eBay Sellers, I’m HammerTap’s Jen Cano with a What’s Hot on eBay newsflash.

Women’s fragrances in the Health and Beauty category are super hot. But, not just any brand will do. On average, fragrances are selling only about 40% of the time, with an average selling price of $19.70.

But when I used HammerTap to find the hottest selling brands, I found exciting news. 90% of Abercrombie and Fitch fragrances are selling, with an average sales price of $32.07. Plus, when these fragrances are sold as fixed price auctions, they’re selling up to 95% of the time and at around $65 per auction.
