That is the question...(apologies to Wm. Shakespeare).

I have listings made up in auction format and ready to go.....

They missed this year, maybe a bang up start for the new year with a great sale. I, for one, am very, very glad to see the end of 2008 and am looking forward to a fresh start with 2009!!

why waste the time to even question the crap anymore....

leave feedback or not leave feedback?

From buyers---"Please leave the positive feedback in mine then I will leave feedback in yours"---here is another----"If I don't hear back by 3pm, I will leave negative feedback"

listing day sales?

to save what???...$10...list the crap and make the sales...you want a listing day sale of 20¢ or something in that area...just list away and ADD the difference to your shipping. Ebay isn't gonna give you BIG DISCOUNTS...what? 100 items maybe and save a quarter or so per listing....


GAMES ARE OVER....time to FIRE some more "coaches".....

They are waiting pretty late to do it this year.
As soon as you launch them, they'll announce the special - if your luck is anything like mine!!!

You know...rhpepsi...you are absolutely right!

I don't really care about the Feedback issue since they made it one-sided..it doesn't count anymore.

I do like to save a few dollars on listing fees and I guess that since I started in 2002 we have always had a sale so I was anticipating one and for once I was prepared!

Ebabe...so true!

otter...as for the listing fee sale. Look at the last one. IF --you "qualified" WHAT did you really save?

$0.01 - $0.99 saved $0.08 per item
$1.00 - $9.99 " $0.18 \
$10.00 - $24.99 " $0.28 >common price
$25.00 - $49.99 " $0.50 /
$50.00 - $199.99 " $1.00

so if you just ADD 25¢ to 50¢ to your SHIPPING & HANDLING....you have a "SUPER EBAY LISTING DAY SALE" ---- EVERYDAY!!! And the BEST part, ebay isn't touching the extra S&H. And DSRs & other crap isn't involved either.

It does appear that eBay has Scrooged out of their gifts to sellers this year. That's OK. I'm going to be scrooging out on listing as many items as I have in the past on eBay.
