Cost Per Unit on eBay


The Problem


eBay is one of the largest and most competitive online marketplaces for all kinds of products. When it comes to those sold by the unit, weight, length, volume etc eBay's size can become a problem. With thousands of listings returned for many common products it is impossible to find the one that is the best value.


eBay features a cost per unit measure on some listings but we have found it to be wrong a lot. Many listings are what eBay calls 'mult variant', meaning that the single listing contains variations of the product and one of these is often the quantity being sold. Each variation of quantity will have a different cost per unit and there is no way to find out what that is on eBay unless you click on every listing and check every variation on offer. Sorting by price therefore doesn't work either as there are often variations for sample sizes which may be cheap but their cost per unit is very high.


What We Do


After becoming frustrated with the problem of being unable to sort on price per unit in eBay we decided to build a solution. We check eBay regularly for a range of popular products and our unique software assesses each listing. We extract the quantity on offer from all listings and their variations, calculate the cost per unit and display the listings on our site sorted by cost per unit.


Because of the errors some sellers make when listing their products for sale we can't interpret everything correctly but we make it much easier to find the best bargains on eBay at any given time. We are adding new products all the time and we earn a small commission for our effort should you go on to make a purchase.

The Ultimate Guide to Corrugated PVC: Measurements, Uses, and Best Practices


Introduction

Corrugated PVC sheets are versatile building materials known for their durability, lightweight nature, and weather-resistant properties. Widely used in construction, DIY projects, and agriculture, these sheets offer a range of applications and benefits.

Uses

Corrugated PVC sheets find application in various sectors, including:

  • Roofing: Ideal for roofing sheds, carports, greenhouses, and outbuildings due to their weatherproofing capabilities.
  • Cladding: Used to clad walls and partitions in agricultural buildings, industrial units, and garages.
  • Glazing: Suitable for DIY projects such as cold frames, skylights, and conservatories.
  • Signage: Frequently used for outdoor signage due to their lightweight and durable properties.

Buying Guide

When purchasing corrugated PVC sheets, consider the following factors:

  • Thickness: Available in various thicknesses ranging from 0.8mm to 3mm, choose the thickness that best suits your application's requirements.
  • Size: Common sizes in the UK include 1.8m x 0.9m, 2.4m x 0.9m, and 3.0m x 0.9m sheets. Select the size based on the area to be covered and ease of handling.
  • Colour: Available in clear, opaque, and tinted options, choose the colour that complements your design and aesthetic preferences.
  • UV Resistance: Opt for sheets with UV-resistant coatings to prevent yellowing and degradation over time, especially for outdoor applications.

Correct Fitment

Proper fitment is essential for ensuring the longevity and effectiveness of corrugated PVC sheets. Follow these tips for correct fitment:

  • Ensure a stable base: Install sheets on a sturdy and level base to prevent sagging and ensure structural integrity.
  • Overlap correctly: Overlap adjacent sheets by at least one corrugation to provide adequate coverage and prevent water ingress.
  • Secure firmly: Use appropriate fixings such as screws with rubber washers to secure the sheets in place while allowing for thermal expansion.
  • Seal edges: Apply sealant or flashing tape to the edges of the sheets to prevent water infiltration and enhance weatherproofing.

Tips for Cutting and Drilling

When working with corrugated PVC sheets, follow these tips for cutting and drilling:

  • Use a sharp utility knife or fine-toothed saw to cut sheets to size, ensuring smooth and precise edges.
  • For drilling, use a drill with a sharp twist bit and low drill speed to prevent cracking or splintering of the material.
  • Support the sheet adequately during cutting and drilling to minimize vibration and potential damage.
  • Wear appropriate personal protective equipment, including safety goggles and gloves, when handling and working with PVC sheets.

Conclusion

Corrugated PVC sheets offer a versatile and cost-effective solution for a wide range of building and DIY projects. With careful consideration of factors such as size, thickness, and UV resistance, along with proper fitment and handling techniques, these sheets can provide durable and weatherproof solutions for roofing, cladding, glazing, and signage applications.
