...and the reason they can't sell on ebay is
what?
I hate to hear people bellyache about what someone else's fair competition is doing to their business. Either compete or find another line of work.
If I may go on a tangent for a moment...
A few years ago a local grocery store closed because Kroger (and then Walmart) moved in with brighter stores, wider aisles, and better selection. When the story of the store's closing ran in the local paper, the store owner was quoted as saying that "the community had let him down" by moving their business to the new stores that he couldn't compete with.
I don't often write letters to the editor, but in this case, I fired off a letter pointing out that this same man most likely put a few Mom and Pop country stores out of business when his "nice, new, modern" store opened up in town back in the 60s, but now that the shoe was on the other foot, he was ready to blame the community for the failure of his business.
redsmetz, back to your original question...I have no idea. I haven't sold on ebay since last summer, but the stuff I listed did okay, I guess. I have more things that I plan to list in a few weeks, and I'll go to ebay with them, too. I'm just not motivated to learn another system right now.
