I am just wondering if Auctionwatch is ever going to start supporting eBay stores, I really hope they do, because I just opened one and it is hard to keep track of my customers...

Probably not because AW has their own store fronts. That would be cutting off their nose to spite their face.

I haven't been listing much recently but plan to start back within a month. And I'll be opening an ebay store. That's why I'm now looking for a hosting provider so I can keep everything in one place.
Yes, AW has it's own stores - but they're losing customers because they don't support ebay stores.

I've made numerous sales out of my eBay store, plus it's a good way for my repeat customer to sort through 'just my' auctions.

nanntique, if your repeat customers know you had an AW store wouldn't they go to that?
If you are a subscriber to AW it is cheaper to have a storefront here than on ebay and I think your merchandise stays in the AW store longer.

I have close to 4000 unique items in my AW storefront. Want to guess what that would cost on Ebay? I get plenty of traffic through my AW store because I use the AW store template on ebay, mention it in my checkout and also with my shipping notice. I have been happy with it even since they started charging. I had an ebay store when they first started and did not really like the limited number of catagories (AW is unlimited and call them anything you want) and the cost. I think it depends really on your item.
