need advice on eBay pricing for swarovski crystal cubes

I'm still trying to get rid of a lot of stuff to help pay for school,
but I'm having so much trouble selling on ebay. I'm really bummed
out. So far, I've only sold 3 things...one of them was a 100' spool
of beadalon silver plated beading wire..and it was the good stuff, the
49 strand......it went for only $20. I paid a WHOLE lot more than
that for it. What on earth happened to ebay? I used to be able to
sell stuff and get a fair price for it.

I'm kind of scared to keep trying to sell there, i'm losing way too
much. I knew I'd take a hit, but I didnt' think it'd be this bad!

I have loads of Swarovski stuff I want to get rid of next. I was
going to sell the 8mm cubes for 1.20, but when I searched ebay for
them, none were selling :\ I need help pricing the 8mm Swarovski
cubes in Heliotrope, but I can't find that color on ebay at ALL.
ARGH!

What should my minimum price be to get interest in the beads without
losing tons of money? Also, are there any other sites where I could
get better bids?

Try Justbeads.com and also look on retail sites like artbeads.com or
firemountain and use that to gauge price.
