There should be a store subscription in between Premium and Anchor. Now it goes from 60.00 -1000 items right to 300.00 for 10,000 items that is just too big of a jump. You could make a flat charge for each additional 1000 untill you get to 10,000 but right now I will not add anything else over 1000. This way we all could make more money!

Good idea. You should suggest that to eBay.

This is almost eerie or mysterious.

You have two items listed that have related applications.

We're working on a (design protected) carbon fiber extrusion machine to make certain time-life replacement parts for commercial helicopters.

Your soft start controller and your pressure transducer may be used together if a converter is used to adapt the transducer output signal through a simple very inexpensive (relatively) Arduino unit programed in accordance with software protocols established by some soft start controller people.

I don't think that you should add anything to your listings as most automated manufacturing equipment people are aware of such things.

Is it a small world or what?

Hi, Merilee: (What a beautiful name!)

That has been proposed many times through the years. So you are not alone in wanting that option. Ebay must prefer the current level and pricing system.

So sorry, that is just the way it is.

It never hurts to bring up the suggestion again. There is the weekly meeting today at 1pm PST. If you can attend, I would think it would be a good place to start the suggestion.

I'd be thrilled if they'd just get rid of the 250 fixed/250 auction split and give 500 (for basic) ala carte listings. I have practically zero use for auctions

For years, there was an intermediate store available with 2,500 listings per month. That was ideal for me, since I could list most of my active inventory twice a month. Others who have responded to you seem not to know that this existed, but it was only within the past two years that it was abolished (maybe that's because I've been selling here forever and I was grandfathered). At any rate, when that option was withdrawn, it was quite a blow and affected my sales negatively. (I could go into how other ebay policies have decimated my sales, but it's too depressing.) It has been suggested to ebay that the intermediate-size store be reinstated, but ebay isn't interested. Also, the 10,000-listing store is something new, as the old anchor stores had far fewer listings available monthly.

I agree with this. 500 listings are not enough for me.

10,000 are far too many.

Offer me 1,000 listings for $80.00 and I'd up grade today.

i agree with you. so when you get to 1000 with the premium store how do you advance to 10000 with the anchor store without paying a per listing charge in between. i guess what i am asking is how does someone go from 1000 to 10000?

That's another suggestion that I see all the time~let sellers chose how to use free listings, and be able to use which listing type they choose.

But I don't mean to suggest that there is no hope; one never knows, you might make the suggestion at the right time and it would be implemented.

Hi, Tyler: Sorry to bother you, but there are a couple of suggestions here, an intermediate level for a store subscription, and that sellers be permitted to choose which listing type they want to use for free listings, auction or fixed price. I understand that Ebay may have their own reasons for these policies and of course that is their perogative. But I just thought that maybe these suggestions might be pased on to the appropriate people or teams for consideration. I have seen both of these suggestions a lot for quite some time. Hope this is ok, and thank you again for all your help!

That would really work well for me too.

Sorry for the typos, Tyler. My apologies! Pased should be passed.

I guess it was kind of like the cube that was recently discontinued; there have been requests to get that option back again; much like the Intermediate Stores you mention.
