The word from yesterday's earnings call has reached my eBay groups and forums, and many sellers are in a panic. Let's all take a deep breath......and think before we panic.
1) We don't even know what the changes are, yet.
2) The changes could be positive, don't assume they will be negative.
3) You're fearing the unknown. Once the changes are announced, you can develop a strategy that works for you.
4) Fee changes may lead you to run fewer auctions and more store inventory, or vice versa.
5) Fee changes many not affect you at all.
6) Fee changes may send you to Amazon or another site.
Don't panic until there is something to panic about. Knowledge is power, and once we have the facts, we can all make educated decisions about our eBay strategy.
From the rumours around the net and some Ebay announcements it seems that its lower listing fees (with additional features throen in) and a raised FVF. Should prove quite beneficial to pretty much all Ebay sellers
