Re: Sale

You won't pay what...a 30 cent listing fee? If that's going to make or break your profit here, I wouldn't sell either.

Re: Sale

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.

Re: Sale

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.

Re: Sale

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

Re: Sale

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.

The easier you are to offend the easier you are to control.

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.
