I have discussed this with eBay .... I would be more than happy to pay the $19.95, but as my stock is good second hand and variable, I would have to increase my prices to get a decent return..

I am more than happy to continue as I am, and in fact, posted the 1 MILLION offer on the discussion page earlier this morning ... to give the store sellers a lift.  

I would just like eBay to be a bit more 'across the board' .... for example, the first half of this year, they were giving out 150 each month to non store sellers  ... (and I expect during that time, the poor old store sellers were missing out)   I think things changed when they offered the free re-listings.    I get the feeling eBay would be happier if everyone had a store.

Meantime, I hope the store sellers out there get a really good return from this offer, and get a heap listed  (don't think anyone will have  the time to list 166,666 items per day over 6 days. though?.)

 


Yes, I would like that too.  I pay for the $49.95 for featured store for 500 free buty-it-nows.  I also don't get free relists as I am registered as a business seller.  I never use anywhere near the listings at the moment, but the reduced final value fees for featured store generally covers the cost of the store.

 

BUT I would like to use more auctions as loss leaders or for the more popular items I sell BUT it costs me $1.50 a pop.

 

SO as a store seller eBay can throw 1 billion buy-it-nows at me but they are no good to me, I would settle for 10 - 20 free auctions now and again - which store sellers hardly ever get.

 

I have non-store IDs, but they do not help one little bit in driving any business to my store ID.
