For the 1st 18 months of being a seller on eBay it was with .com and things could not of been better, Top Rated Seller, an eBay store, listings front page around the world, bulk sales, 10c listing cost auction style, heaps free listings.

Then..............!

We were called interboarder traders and alians. Lost our Top Rate Sellers Rating accept in Australia. No more free listings. All listing were stopped accept for Australia and then for the last 2 months our 19th and 20th month not a single sale. Tried to find one of our listing on line but could not find a single listing on any eBay anywhere. No one told us anything. It took me 6 long weeks to figure it all out. Shifted our whole store to .com.au.

Not long after this the deal for a featured store came on line and from that platform we have rebuilt our store sales and have an income that we are very happy with again.

Beware of doing the .com eBay saler with an Australian address. The eBay .com computor does not like it. The eBay computor always wins!
