frustrated about auction listing limits

[margiemoo]

Hi. Is anyone else frustrated about being only able to sell 40 auctions per month? I am happy to open a store if I can sell by auction but not at $1.50 per item!! Does anyone out there have a suggestion? I sell mostly second hand clothes and fixed price is a disaster for me in the past - I have opened and closed stores 3 times already.

thanks!

Hi. yes I have 4 different id's but it is so frustrating cause I do not have a following on the others and want to use my good reputation to sell more by auction. This week I sold a second hand dress for $123. If I had listed as BIN I would have put $45 so it is worth my doing auctions!

I sell second hand (and new) clothing, and I ONLY do BIN, and I have a store (200 per month), and Ive never had a problem.

Why exactly has fixed price been a disaster?

I research all my brands / designers before listing them, so its hard to underprice them (unless theres a bunch of people out there who want to pay well above retail price, which I guess there could be).

if auctions are so good to you, surely its possible to absorb the $1.50 fee??  if you expected $45 and got $123.... there's pleanty of room there!
