Ebay Shipping Charges

[texansrangerfan73]

Good to know, i appreciate your help. When is it a good idea to get a Ebay store?

I think that depends on how much you sell, if it is high end or low end & rather you choose to put it at Buy it Now or not. Stores have a monthly fee lowest being 15.95 which gives you listings, so many pictures per listing & discounts on the BIN listing of .20 cents instead of the original .50 cents. I've thought about it plenty of times but after doing the math I'm happy with 50 free listings a month & no store lol. Here is a link you might like to read up on. http://pages.ebay.com/storefronts/start.html

An Ebay store runs you $20 to $25 a month.I have been an Eaby seller since 98 and unless your doing $300 to $500 a month i don't think it is worth it even with the discounts you get.A regualr seller alreayd gets 50 free listings a month and now 12 free pictures.So if your running more than 50 auctions and more than a couple 100 a month you don't need the Ebay store.Just my opinion.

Thanks guys, went to that link and they actually have a calculator to help you determine if you need one or not. I do not.

its up to the buyer to agree with the sellers term. read read read. if you dont like what you see, move along and not bid.

Yes it gets expensive to not combining shipping and it does feel wrong, but if I don't want to pay extra for shipping and it's stated on the auction, I would buy from another seller. That's why you have to read the auction carefully or you will be burned. I've bought compulsively a few time and didn't read the whole auction. So read carefully and ask questions before you bid.
