Gee, what a surprise. Now that eBay's new fee structure has taken place, I'm guessing we won't see the weekly 1/2 off listing days we've seen recently.

The idea was to churn up $$$, but now that eBay has increased the number of monthly subscribers (store fee), they will now see some regular fees pouring in.

well,you can list an item at 99 cents and place a reserve on it.

huh? reserve is $2 up to $200 where as auction style listing fees up to $200 are less than $2. Doesn't compute in a sellers favor.

Why would anyone list a item of value at 99 cents?? If you have a store, which is what I thought Ebay was trying to get everyone to have, the auction listing is not even free.

I have no clue what they are trying to accomplish.

Shag.
Is business slow in your store?
A retired dealer packed up her Chinese antiques and took them to China where Chinese antiques started at US $2000 in auctions.
She brought them out of China after the Revolution and now
The Chinese wants their antiques back!

1/2 price was OK but I really miss the 5 free each month with a $20 cap.
I sold all my gold scrap that way and it saved me a lot in fees. I'm out of gold now anyway but it was fun while it lasted.
