Free listings on items over $100

[bohoandbeautiful]

I have had an offer for free listings for items over $100, unfortunately I have hardly anything at that level that I can list, chatting to some other sellers this seems to be the case for them too, hardly anything or nothing at all to list. This finished on the 7th of October.

Maybe Ebay is trying out this to see how it works, Im hoping though that we will still get the 100 free listings either today or tomorrow though as most people cant use the offer for items $100 and over : (  whereas so many of us can use the other one : )

I went from regular selling with the 100 free listings, to a store where my sales plummeted to nothing. I'd get a couple on the weekends but nothing like I was getting (20 a week) as a normal seller. I've just changed back and the interest in my products has increased dramatically. Things that had no watchers now have 15.

That's quite interesting, as I have found the opposite to be true - I get more views, watchers and sales on my store items than I ever get on my auction listings using this ID. I've also tried auctions on my store ID and they get no interest at all, some don't even manage to get any proper views (they sit on 2 for the entire duration). 

I would say it's the items Iisting, but when they were store BINs, interest was noticably higher. o_O

Are your items one off or do you have more than 1 in stock?

Mine are all one off (usually used clothing/shoes) auctions did absolutely shocking in the store and BIN were dismal. I also fely like buyers expected a lot more when they were purchasing from a store but it could have just been a string of bad luck!! Things like same day post, free shipping, discounts on multiple items. Questions I didn't have as a non-store.

A mix of both, but the items I tried auctioning were primarily one-off's (both new and pre-owned clothing).

Every now and then, I also tried auctioning some other stuff I sell (multiple-quantity jewellery items), and found that the auctions got no interest, but the (higher priced) BINs would still sell while the auction was running.

HA! Looks like you just have to play around with stuff yourself and work out what is best for your products/selling style 🙂

So... just an observation as a lot of my auctions ended today. 

A top I had in my store for BIN $14 or Best offer for over 30 days and received no interest or offers, just sold for $20 on a 5 day auction. 

Super bizarre how ebay works sometimes.

Yeah it really does your head in sometimes.
