Couple more random thoughts/queries:

 

1. it appears Store-keepers when they list a BIN cannot also include Make an Offer.  is that right?  In two minds as to whether that is a good thing.

 

I dont use best offer, but plenty of other stores do, so the facility is available.

 

2. from what I've gleened from these Boards it appears that Store listings take priority over non-Store listings.  is that right? 

 

I Used to have a non store account that did very well and was more vibrant than my stores, so I dont think that is correct. If anything I suspect the non store accounts are not " regulated " in the way stores are, allowing for a more natural flow of sales. But that is just my opinion. No-one knows for sure.

 

 

Or if not do I need to ensure that they don't languish at the bottom, by regularly re-listing?  [As I used to do without a Store, before I started getting charged for each one!]

 

You can achieve the same effect by doing Phantom bulk edits.ie. you click bulk edit, tick up to 500 listings at a time and just click finish without actually changing anything. This pushes listings up in searches for awhile in the same way as relists do.

 

3. also I thought I read somewhere that the postage regime is less strict.  Right?  I always post within 48 hours, and haven't had a problem - yet.  But it would be nice to know that there is some further slack with a Store.

 

You can choose very long handling times with a store, at least ten days and maybe longer. I have a five business day handling period ( which gives me a full week with the weekend ) and use all of it sometimes.

 

4. in general are seller standards the same?  

 

Dont know for sure.

 

thanks again j
