So I was looking at the 88 auction-style and FP listings for Jody Coyote earrings. My prices are lower on average, even including shipping, than the two largest vendors, so it would make sense to move 80 of my listings out of Store into Core for the 25 cent FP promo.
Except that I am Lowered in Search because my shipping DSR is 4.3. I'd be spending $20 with no hope of any sale. My goods would be totally invisible: The Emperor's New Earrings.
Hey eBay! This is why your revenues aren't growing as they should and why, consequently, the stock price has tanked. What kind of business thinks it's going to increase revenues by restricting the number of people who receive value from buying its services? What kind of logic is that?

My feelings exactly this morning when I saw the red. All it took for me to get it was one neutral, my stars are the same as they were with the lowest being 4.7 for shipping charges and I don't intend on changing what I charge.
