As an seller by auctions, and not a store seller, I am pleased with the changes applied to stores. I had about given up with ebay auctions because many of the things I tried to list were offered dirt cheap in stores (I sell books), at prices where nobody was going to make money. I would rather throw a book in the trash than waste my time trying to sell it for a $3 profit. Now I am back.

For me, it is just the opposite.
Thousands of postcards offered in core at $.99 and $1.99. Some are even getting desperate enough to add gallery to that. In store I can get what I ask for them. In core I just get best offers (even though I don't offer that option...asking why mine aren't priced like everyone else's).

I sell paperback lots -- in my store -- for more than I can get at auction. I've tried both selling formats, and store is best for me. Although I don't make much on the book lots, they don't cost me much to list, and can sit there until my previous buyer(s), who are pretty regular customers, need more books. It does, however, takes time to establish repeat business.
I'm also selling on Amazon (individual and higher quality books), and the results have been fairly decent. But NOT great. You might want to try your luck there. NO FEES, until our book sells. Then the cost is hefty, so price accordingly...
