Hello. I'm just posting to voice my concerns regarding the new promoted listings express feature for auctions.
I sell computers, and the price is $10 for promoted listings express in that category. A large portion of my auctions are for dated computers that fetch less than $50, and when the promotion price is $10, and I don't even get that money back if a buyer defaults on payment, it just doesn't make sense to promote. I feel the system negatively affects sellers who sell more affordable items in more expensive categories.
I think a better way would be to charge, for example, $3 if the auction is less than $50, $7 if between $50 and $200, and $10 if more than $200. This way, sellers of less expensive equipment are not impacted so negatively, especially because when everyone else is using promoted listings and you aren't, you make less money.
Please upvote/reply if you agree, I'd like to see I'm not alone in this.
