Is it even worth trying to get Top Rated Seller anymore?

With the new 2017 spring changes. is it even worth all the hard work of running to the post office to get orders out quickly for a 10% discount? is it still worth all the hard work required to upload 95% on time to obtain TRS? I LOVE selling on EBAY and it still even with all the changes offers the best site on the internet to sell on (in regards to bringing in customer base. i just am now thinking if I should offer 2-3 day shipping instead of same business day shipping, as same business day shipping is a bll buster to do, but was worth the 20% discount. not sure if it is worth 10% discount for me. when i can offer now 2-3 day shipping time instead of same day and still get TRS. especially since that when we became TRS we didnt noticed a difference in more sales or search placement. (no benefit to sales if we are TRS )  so really only benefit is 10% discount..whopee! your thoughts please

OK kids, time to get the Dodge loaded up again. I hear 'Poppy's By the Tree' calling. This trip might be a long one too.

eBay prints at the bottom of the seller update that these changes are being implemented because eBay users want more.

 

How is reducing the TRS discount by 10%, and increasing the tracking to 95% offering anyone more?

 

They just keeping on burning buyers and sellers.  Last nonsense was reducing the eBay Bucks by 50% as well.  Not a very progressive company I'm afraid
