eBay Fee Changes - Free Gallery Photo

Part of eBay's big fee announcement today was free gallery photos for all listings. That's right, free gallery on auction, fixed price, and store inventory listings. Currently, gallery photos have been costing sellers 35 cents on auction and fixed price listings. Many eBay analysts predicted this change was coming.

This is great news. For sellers listing hundreds of items a month, free gallery will gallery%20photo.gifprove to be a substantial savings in fees. Most sellers use this feature as a way to promote their items to browsing customers - potential buyers are much more likely to click on a listing with a small photo of the item.

The new fees, including free gallery photo, will go into effect on February 20. View the complete overview of the new eBay seller fee changes, and read Bill Cobb's message to sellers.

Don't you have any original thoughts? All you're doing is reporting what other people are saying. Pom Poms are nice if you're cheering for the right team. It appears you're doing it off the backs of people who have been on ebay much longer than you have and their experiences. Power seller status means nothing. Its based on gross sales not net. I'm not sure why people have recommended this site unless they've been on ebay for less time as well. Give YOUR own opinion on eBay fees. Or are you too much of a company person?

Hi, anonymous, thanks for visiting. I am disappointed that you didn't leave some contact information so that I could reply to you. Anyway, I am a little confused by your comment.

I am sure there are sellers who have been on eBay longer than I, and others who are new to eBay. As far as this particular post, the information was posted on the eBay site under "announcements." Part of my duties here at Know More Media is to report what is going on with eBay, much as a news reporter gives details on current events.

eBay has had a busy week - with Meg Whitman announcing her retirement, the Q04 2007 Earnings Call, and the fee change announcements today. I'm sure there is some overlap on eBay blogs with so much happening lately.

Sure, I have plenty of original thoughts. Many of my "what to Sell" posts are written from my experience from selling the items over the last 5 years. My posts under "eBay Humor" are my own observations about different facets of the eBay world.

Power Seller Status is based on more than gross sales including minimum number of items sold, feedback rating,and compliance with eBay policies. You can review eBay's requirements for becoming a Power Seller on eBay.com under the help section.

I encourage you to start your own eBay blog and share your original thoughts with other sellers and eBay enthusiasts. Be sure to visit Power Seller King and leave us a link back to your blog so we can visit you. Thanks again for visiting Power Seller King, and best of luck with your eBay ventures.
