Closing my eBay store this week - buy now!

[mcgrail0007@netzero.net]

I am closing up my eBay store this week - either on Friday or Saturday. I am cancelling my subscription at that point. I don't know if eBay will cancel all of my listings at that point or not but none of my listings will be relisted at that point as fixed price in the store format. I know that some of my items are not sold by anyone else on eBay such as my variations and rare Astrocade items. If anyone is interested in anything from me you might want to buy now as some of these items most likely will never be listed again.

Why are you closing your store?

I suspect he's doing this because there really isn't any benefit to owning one anymore.

Sorry, I love having a store, I just park my stuff that doesn't sell in it.

Or have things changed, can you do 30 day auctions without a store?

In short, yes and yes.

I've never had a store, but at some point I noticed I could do 30 day BIN listings for the same price as 7 day.

I thought there was no point to having a store due to the upcoming eBay price hikes, plus...

... this. I just put stuff up for 30 days and forget about it. I don't see the point of having a store anymore.

Do you guys know if you lose the dashboard functionality? The store has awesome functionality for relisting and stuff which was really gimped for the regular moes, at least when I started it.

I could go without the store, I doubt it draws much traffic and it costs a pretty penny. Maybe I'll do a cost comparison- unless you guys have a link. I'll take 5 cents off of your next purchase if you can provide a link to a nice comparison of eBay store and non-eBay store.

I guess a nickel ain't worth all that much these days!
