OT: ebay Power seller stuff
I jsut got this offer because of recent stuff to get a bronze (whatever that is - 3rd place?) POWER SELLER icon. I recently sold a couple thou of stuff for a friend - of which I got 25% but to the outside world looking at my sales, it looks like I'm doing better than I am. It has been my tendancy to be _more_ leary of Power Sellers than those that are not. What say you, guys? Benefits and disadvantages ? more easily findable by th government ? I dont have enough income to pay taxes at present, but if I took a power seller icon I think Imihgt get hunted down to prove it. ann -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
Re: OT: ebay Power seller stuff
Some people might believe the certification actually means something. Most power sellers seem to have more accurate descriptions or sell more junk from what I've noticed. But all it seems to mean is you've sold a lot of junk. http://www.boreme.com/boreme/funny-2005/ebay-song-p1.php ann sanfedele wrote: I jsut got this offer because of recent stuff to get a bronze (whatever that is - 3rd place?)

It probably is not worth it if it cost you anything. Personally it seems like so called power sellers sell a lot of cheap junk. Good individual ads are probably the best way to sell on eBay. -- graywolf http://www.graywolfphoto.com http://webpages.charter.net/graywolf Idiot Proof == Expert Proof --- ann sanfedele wrote: I jsut got this offer because of recent stuff to get a bronze (whatever that is - 3rd place?)

Good individual ads are probably the best way to sell on eBay. It costs nothing - and it seemed to me, too, that power sellers are selling tons of stuff that is more or less all the same. Individual ads are all I ever do. ann -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net

There you are -- I suspected a down side -- I certainly would not be able to keep up my sales Thanks, Rob. ann -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
