“Our recent Insertion Fees promotion was such a hit we’re going to run it again.”
If it was such a "hit", how come eBay stocks are going down?
because ebay lost money on this promotion (think about the percentage of all listings that start at under 99 cents).
It was a "hit" to the sellers, while ebay most probably did lose money on it.
Also i am not too sure but if eBay is on the New York stock exchange, then a small promotion here in australia is irrelevant to something big that could be going on over there
Ebay would never lose money on a free listing promotion. They probably get as much in return from the Final Value fees not to mention the rip-off Paypal fees.
Ebay shares are going down because visitor numbers are going down. They have been shafting sellers and buyers for far too long and they are paying for it.
Wow. What a saving. Time to pop the Moët et Chandon.
for powersellers this can literally save $100's if not 1000s otherwise its still better than paying the fee
if the fee is 30c, to save $100 you have to sell 333 items in just over 3 weeks, so around 100 items per week with 99c starting price. to save $1000, you have to sell 1000 items per week. who does that?
powersellers do, its not uncommon for them to have 1000+ items at one time
The good days and the fun days of ebay are long gone. Constant meddling and changes by those in power to the original format have ruined this once great e commerce tool. It's time for Aussies to build up and support oztion.com.au
or gumtree.com.au for free classifieds…
eBay love the 99c promotion because it leads to lower end prices being achieved by sellers, this in turn attracts more buyers to the site, which in turn attracts more sellers. Great promotion for ebay - bad promotion if you are a seller.
Now ebay have made paypal a mandatory payment option they'll make their fees back in paypal fees.
The savings could potentially be massive. You're allowed to list a maximum of 20 of any one item at a time, so if you did one day auctions you could list 20 auctions of 1 item per day (useful if you had multiple stock). If you had 100 different items x 20 listings per day x 24 days x $0.30 savings = saving of $14,400..
didnt ebay buy gumtree
yes they did
WOW - or if you wanted to you could list for FREE on oztion.com.au plus pay less for valuation fees on oztion
wow.. a massive 30c savings…
yawn..
