Hello Everyone, I am having a hard time getting my head around selling items in game. A little back ground, I just left LOTRO after 3 yrs, so my knowledge of selling thing is based on that. I put something up for sale for 20,000 ISK (or at least I think I did), it looks like there was a brokerĘs fees of -13,000.00 ISK plus a deposit of -1,000,000.00 ISK. So in my simple mind, even if I were to sell the item, I still lost money. What did I do wrong? Could someone explain how to sell something, in game, because my warehouse is getting quite full. Thanks!

You can find the Wiki article about buying and selling in Eve here: Linkage
If you put somethin up for 20,000.00 IKS, your broker fees will not be 13,000.00 ISK. Did you screw up with the numbers? Also have a look at your "orders" tab in your wallet window. Any orders you have will be listed there.
Are you sure you are actually trying to sell something and not buying? You would only have to make a deposit if you are trying to buy multiple goods (e.g. buying 10 items at 20k each will withdraw 200k from your wallet instantly and payed to the sellers as they sell one ore multiple items to your 10 item order).

Most things aren't sold via contract, they're sold via the Market.

Head for Amarr Middle station or Jita 4-4 and dock. Unload your cargo hold into your hangar. Right click any stack and go for sell item. Don't use the autopilot, it might get you killed.

Thank you all for your help. Here is what I discover when selling items. Step 1: Right click, on the item you want to sell and view market detail, then sort by price. Step 2: Right click again on the item you want to sell and repackage the item. Step 3: Right click again, select sell this item. Step 4 Select Advanced tab, then set Ask Price, then Duration. When you are happy with everything click on Sell. The item is removed for you warehouse. Note: There are feesĘs when sell any item in game. The BrokerĘs fee and Sales Tax. There is also a Market Escrow that will be returned when item is sold, expires or cancelled.

BTW tried to convo you ingame to explain when you first posted but you rejected it out of hand. I don't know what you were doing at the time, and you might have been very busy, but in the event that you were not you should note that having a brief conversation ingame is not life threatening.
