Finally got it! - New changes to fees

mccrae2007 — Sat, 04 May 2013 00:44:52 GMT

I haven't read all the blurbs about the new changes, but I think I have finally got it.

For my featured store:-

I now have to list another 200 items to get the free listings. (this month)

& any auctions are going to cost me $1.50 to list.

Taken me a while, I think I was in denial about having to read it all.

My little hobby is not quite a hobby anymore it may become quite a chore.

I've had several GTC listings tick over in the last couple of days and have not been charged any insertion fees for them.

Sorry, I have been avoiding the reading too, just waiting to see how it all pans out and fingers crossed.

No problem 🙂 That was one of the first things I checked after May 1st, as it was never quite clear if the free listings applied to both new and old, and would have thrown all my calculations completely out of whack if it was for new listings only. :8}

The auction fee hike pretty is a bit much IMHO, it seems they don't want store owners running them (unless they sell collectibles).

I have 1 ending this hour so I will watch to see if my 29 turns to 30.

Yes I agree digital ghost, auction listing price is very high, sometimes I just list auctions for a "grab" item.

I will be considering very carefully now what I auction. Otherwise I will be paying for someone else to have it. 😞

Little hobbies have a tendency to become little businesses:^O Thanks for the tip, putney; I was wondering how many I had left:-)

Just kicked over to 30 of 200 free listings.

So yes all good with GTC's they click into the next month free of charge. $1.50 saved so far. :^O

I've got 7 left (out of 80), so I'll be paying for the rest of the month.
