eBay PowerSeller Looking for Alternatives

eBay Power Seller Dave Stoup is looking for alternatives:


ecommerce-guide.com:

Dave Stoup, a Connecticut-based-eBay Power Seller, has been on eBay for more than six years, and maintained his eBay store, eSales Central periodically over the last four years. To Stoup, the higher fees do make sense if eBay wants to maintain its current business model, focusing on auctions rather than retail sales. On the other hand, he feels eBay purposely reeled in new store merchants in the months leading up to the fee increases.

Consider that while it was putting higher fees in place, eBay created an eBay Stores Resource Center, set up a special campaign for popular store feature Buy It Now and in both May and June ran contest promotions related to eBay Stores.

For Stoup and many other eBay store owners, the most important factor to consider when deciding whether to jump ship is traffic. There's no denying that eBay has the largest market share of auction-minded consumers, and store subscribers know all too well that a couple of auctions running on eBay with cross-promotion links to items listed in their eBay Store can lead to more much more exposure than other services can presently offer.
