ZonkerHarris's Journal

September 9, 2015

Closed my eBay store after 9 years and my sales on eBay skyrocketed.

The store was dead.
Not getting any real business anymore.
I closed it and now just list things as a regular account.
eBay gave me a bunch of free listings for some promo recently so I took advantage of them for the hell of it and listed a bunch of stuff.
Sales have gone way up for me on the wacky mix of stuff I sell/collect. Wood boxes, pens, art, glass, mid century collectibles.
I guess the stores are a search ghetto and the main listings are more featured in searches.
25 sales in August and continuing in Sept too.
4 since Monday.
Very pleasantly surprised.
Anyone have a similar experience?

About ZonkerHarris

Nixon was a fucking crook. As a teenager I marched on the UN in 1982 with a million other people demanding we get rid of the threat of nuclear weapons hanging over our heads. Since then I've worked to get Democrats elected like John Aristotle Phillips, known as the A-Bomb Kid when he ran for Congress against Stuart McKinney in CT in the 80's (we lost twice) through the Obama campaign in 2008 and 2012. I want to legalize cannabis, reform our prison for profit system, cut our military budget, get out of Afghanistan and push solar energy panels into every building in the USA.
