Morning,
If you are going to sell here now you need a BUSINESS PLAN.
Getting rich quick doesn't work here...more like getting poor if you are not well prepared.
Looking for free listings and a low cost selling enviornment usually results in poor results.
Ebay is no longer a novelty...they are looking out for the shareholders and if you can help in that mission, great, if not oh well.

A cursory peek at your offer tells me you sell collectibles. Admittedly, I know nothing about that market. I know, you're wondering why I am commenting on a market I know nothing about. Because it's an opinion as are so many thoughts here.
I think the collectibles market is shrinking. Describe a typical collector and search buying trends for the various age groups of potential buyers and you may find the "collector" age group is going away.
I believe eBay allows you to relist items for a total of three times for the insertion fee. What does that translate to in terms of cost per week of advertising? If that's a barrier to your survival, you must change something. At this rate of sales and income, you're working for eBay while eBay isn't working for you.

It looks like you have a store so I fail to see how you are paying more than 25 cents to list anything.

Outside of my $20/mo store fee, I have never paid Ebay a single penny to LIST an item. If you need a bigger store, upgrade. If you don't want to do that, open a second account and stay within your 50 free listing allotment.

I need to correct this:
I have never paid Ebay a single penny to LIST an item since they started giving free listings. Used to be listing was not free, there was a fee for each listing.
Listing fees left for good in I believe 2010.
