oh yeah...and it seems that PS status and badges are being handed out left right and centre, going by bewildered sellers messages I have read tonight in other threads...being a PS.......or having the dumb badge/ribbon.. means zippadeedoodaa diddly squat...nada

not quite, jilly, it means that people who were NOT making the sales 2 or 3 months ago, with the encouragement to list more, and list above the silly .99c threashold are MAKING SALES, yes, buyers are FINDING THEIR LISTINGS and buying them!! suddenly they are going from casual no-bodies, to TRS and ps.. I.E. making at least 100 sales a year, ok so I guess some want more than $3,000 p.a.... fine, but at least they are on their way.
I never sell anything over about $50 but I still manage around $10,000 pa without too much effort.


so, the new logo may mean zippadeedooda diddly squat to you, but it DOES MEAN other sellers are managing to find those elusive (to you) buyers.
