Uniting Ebay Sellers



I know what your probably thinking OMG another Ebay lens? Isn't there enough? Well maybe there is and then again maybe there isn't. My Ebay Store is just one part of my life and therefore while this lens is dedicated to Ebay sellers it won't be 100% about that topic.

We need to live and have fun too right? That is why I made this lens for Ebay sellers to unite and have fun while earning some cash. I can't promise Ebay will make you rich but I can say it has helped with some bills.

Throughout the next several weeks I will be adding more contests, polls, and exciting adventures.

You do not need to be or ever have been an Ebay seller to join in the fun!

 So come join us!

To get things started we are posting an example of one of our auctions to give you an idea.

If you are very equiped to write your own code you can send it in code form or just send me your short description and the item number and we will put it together.

There were no new submissions today March 7, 2008

Good Morning!
Our product of the day is:



That is ending soon with No reserves! We offer great combined shipping as well.

Follow up on eBay rate changes 

Ok it has been almost a month since the changes and we are seeing some comments suggesting the changes are worse not better. What do you think?

eBay Rates For or Against? 

Ok so the new eBay rates are all the buzz these days and some are looking forward to these changes more than others.

If you don't know what I am talking about today then you should check out eBay announcement New Pricing and Other News and go actually read the overview completely.

Please understand that these topics can become heated but we expect you to behave as adults should and show some respect to other debate members.

For this reason alone I will approve blurbs to protect from profane or abusive remarks.

For or Against New eBay rates?

I think ebay is good for big stores only...For me as an individual I cant open a store and paid to ebay monthly because my sales are not the same as the big stores..And the price for listing is expensive and worst you have to paid the fee if you sell or not....But know this goin to change starting on february 20 the price for listing will be zero, but the rest fitures is now at half price...And now they are offering no charge if you not sell the item...This offer start on february 28, that what I'm waiting..But you know wich will be the biggest problem after this...In CBS NEWS mention that ebay will not allow negative feedback anymore, this is not good, you will not know who is responsible as a buyer or seller....

Thats why I star selling in other site and they are very secure, you have to be a paypal verify member to protect all members..Some of this site you dont have to paid anythig zero, nothing and for a store is the same zero nothing and your items is in the front page at no cost..Other auction site only charge cents..

The only problem there are not famous as eBay..But in one of those site I was the first member now they have 157..

We need to promote this site and I know one day they will be famous as eBay...

For the most part, I think it's a good change. Although their final value fees have increased, with the decrease in listing fees and free gallery, I will probably start listings at a higher amount than before, thus making up for the increase in FVF's.

As far as not being able to leave buyers neg feedback, if a buyer purchases something and doesn't pay within a week or so, we final a Non-paying Buyer report. When that is filed, a buyer isn't allowed to leave feedback anyways!

Being the Leader and all I thought I should brave the front and venture my opinion first!

Just teasing but seriously for the last year I have heard so many demand and request a change to the rates and they have most certainly done that with these new rates.

I think it will be beneficial to those who have less up front funding abilities and cut costs for those whose products don't sell as well or they may be just starting and learning how to use eBay.

Sure to bring more competition!

Hope it never changes!

As a small Powerseller I have grave concerns regarding the new fee schedule and the changes to the feedback system.

I have detailed my concerns in an An Open Letter to eBay on my blog.

I'm not so happy still with the star system as it seems to me that buyers don't get shipping charges. I get poor ratings even though I don't upcharge at all on the shipping. What can you do about that? Nothing. I include the shipping calculator in every description for auctions and store.

As for the slight reduction in listing fees, thumbs up, thumbs up also for the perks for being a powerseller in good standing. I wondered when powerseller would actually pay off! LOL!

I am with Jennifer on the FVF's. I will just have to start my auctions higher and hope that the items sell for more. It is disturbing that eBay seems to think that eBay is the place people should shop for a bargain, that seems to suggest that we might not get what we want for our items, but, after 10 years of eBay selling, I have lived through changes before. Life goes on, and on, and on.

Did you know? Random Facts 

We are certified! 

As we progress we are moving more away from our eBay store in the light of signing up for a Prostores account. We will continue to sell on eBay auctions and maintain a basic store.

My favorite past time is to do web design and I will miss toying around with the eBay store therefore I thought I would take the test to become certified to do store design work on eBay and I passed right away.

I am very excited about this and will be working to get more design packages available for purchase on my website.

Our prices are beyond fair and we aim to please.

You may see the package we have listed on our site by visiting us at Starr's Discount Store.

The site is a little bare in the design side currently but we are working on sprucing things up and getting more information.

In the meantime please feel free to drop us an email at info@starrdiscount.com
