We have all watched the changes happen over the past year and more are promised. People had their livelihoods seriously hurt when digital download ebooks were abruptly cut out and fees increased. People are worried and confused about the changes to the eBay feedback system. My Dad called me up to find out what it means that he can't give negative feedback now. He sells antique papers and classic car parts and tells me that some of his customers needed that negative feedback. What can I tell him? We have to just suck this stuff up and go with it, or we need to look around and see what else there is. Have you ever bought a book on Amazon.com and seen those used books offered by bookstores off the Amazon site? There are people selling all kinds of things other than books in the same way. It's not too complicated to have your own store! I am doing it and you can too. First you need an Amazon account. If you buy on Amazon, you already have one. Just log in to Amazon and click on "My Account" at the top right corner. Once in your account, there's a button on the right that says "sell your stuff". That's where you set up your seller account FOR FREE. All your listings on Amazon are free until sold... then you pay their commission for listing your item and handling the transaction. At first I hated their commissions. It seemed that Amazon and the Post Office were getting more money than I was for each sale. Now that I'm into this, I see it's not much different from eBay's. After one month, I am making money, and if I can do this anyone can. I'm going to give you some valuable tips from my own research and experience transitioning from eBay to Amazon. If you are fed up with eBay, it might be time for you to really consider moving to another selling site. EBay has been doing this over and over to us. A search of Google for "fed up with eBay" brings up the USAToday story from 2005 about eBay raising the seller fees and how many people just could not take it anymore... why did they stay? Amazon appears to be rock solid and not willy nilly changing the rules and fees. It's not difficult at all to adjust to the differences. No reason not, if you want, to make money on both eBay and Amazon. Sun, 22 Mar 2009 08:11:02 -0600
