I couldn't agree more.   Since Christmas (as saless have been very slow), I have tried BIN, (I usually sell auction) and no sales or interest at all.   

Although my sales are down, I find .... yesterday for example .....  I had 5 items which sold for double the listed auction price as each had a couple of bidders.   I wouldn't have got as much if I'd listed them BIN.

I am hoping things will slowly improve now   🙂
