View Full Version : Can't keep up

I'm wanting to sell primarily breed specific items but am having so much trouble keeping up with the quantity I have. The 7 day listings that are over and need re-listed etc.

Does anyone have an organized brain for transplant they are willing to sell?

Would it pay to forget the potential re-list credit and just keep items going with the auto re-list as long as there is inventory?

I love what I'm doing, nevertheless If I can't get myself more organized I will be back to the salt mines of nursinghttp://www.buildaforum.com/inkforums/img/smilies/grin.gif

Thanks for ANY help!

I would pay to move off ebaY and go to ecrater.

Ecrater is a place where you can easily set up a free store. Very cool.

If you just keep re-listing on ebay, you're going to end up losing money - those listing & insertion fees add up fast. I list an item twice, and if it doesn't sell the second time, I put it directly into my ebay store. I sell enough to make it worth the $15/month, but plan to move to ecrater eventually.

I'll check out Ecrater, thanks to both of you.

So, you don't use selling manager pro, you just monitor everything from IF? Do you find that as easy?

Same here but to make up what I would loose if I switched totally to Ecrater I an thinking will take about another year.

My sales on Ecrater have been fantastic but it's a lot of work to promote your own Store (website) and most either don't know how or are to lazy http://www.buildaforum.com/inkforums/img/smilies/tongue.gif

The way I have always looked at eBay is that it's a helluva good place to advertise.

Is Ecrater a good place for one of collectables?

I don't have lots of the same thing to list over & over, so just wondered if it was "one of" friendly?

I have an unlimited qty. of my items but I believe most on Ecrater have one of a kind items and many seem to be doing very well.

Yes it is one of friendly. They have what I think is called inventory control. So if you only have one and it sells and is paid for then it goes out of stock.

Queenmum- are you on the ASM forums? There are many, many sellers there (very friendly, very helpful) who sell OOAK items, and could probably give you some really good advice.

Stone, I'll go check it out & see what's what.
Might be a good thing, huh?
