On average, back massagers are selling 59%. But, I dug deeper and found that any back massager with the word Shiatsu in the title sold 88% of the time. Since these items are already selling well, you might want to concentrate on ways to make more money on each listing. For this, end your listing on a Friday, list it as a 1 day auction with a Buy It Now option, and include the word “shoulders� in the title, and watch your selling prices climb.
