Reply to "This would work much better on Ebay than a Boycott will."

I'll still take what I can get. I rarely lose money on listings unless they don't sell.. speaking of which... nothing is moving right now. Mom still thinks these old pots will sell and they don't.. Oh well...


You hit the nail on the head with this statement. Ebay admits that the sell through rate (STR) site wide is running at about 20%. Which means the average person needs to list an item 5 times before it sells. That means eBay sucks 5 listing fees out of us on each item, not to mention upgrade fees.

This is what makes eBay not so profitiable. Until this changes, either with STR's improving or eBay backing off on listing fees, sellers site wide will be re-thinking their business stradegy with more and more looking to sell in other venues like their own websites.
