No, a store is NOT cheaper.
I run a basic store, and I used to pay $.03 cents every 30 days per listing. Now, WITHOUT lowering the cost of the monthly store fee, I am forced to pay $.20 cents every month for my listings.
I hate epay more and more everyday, and will soon be shutting my store down.

Note: ebay Stores sellers aren't eligible for the 100 free insertion fees per month on auction-style listings. I just found out on ryan olbeys calculator that ebay is taking almost 20% BITE!maybe more... For U.S sellers it goes up to 15-18% but for us Non-US sellers because paypal charge us again if we withdraw... for example if I withdraw 100$ that's 4,300 pesos paypal charge me an amount of 100 Pesos... based on the dollar amount... If the money arrived to my bank they also charged us... but ebay and Paypal is too much... They are a BIG BIG Crocodile! |

No Lafaa, not $0.20. 20% of the total sales price. It really is ridiculous, but since I rarely sell on ebay, it's not very important to me. |

Hippie. Now without a store you would be paying .50 to 1.00 per listing,even for stuff under 20 bucks.I worked the numbers man. And Yes, Baguio was pretty nice when I was there 20..months.........years ago.Love the mountain air in the summer. It does work out the ebay will get 9% in the U.S. and Playpal will get 1.5% so, if you sell coins as a consignment on this site they are taking 30%.(This will probably be removed in a few minutes.) But P.S.S. Is there anywhere else that you have the opportunity to have 100,000,000 people to see your stuff? Edited by Halfwitty

Yeah! you cannot compare visibility to ebay. nothing even comes close to it. So what can we do but close our eyes and pretend we have a hole in our pocket.. or better yet open your own website and sell there? |

There are alternatives.....
Except to the Philippines, one of the most beautiful countries on God's green Earth.

Yes, .20 is a bit high. Why would I even bother to list something for $1? The .03 was easier to handle, but that's 20% right off the bat plus ending fees and PAAAAAAYpal. I'm slowly moving away from ebay anyways though. I hate having to throw money away when I can sell things on either here, or in real life. |

Thanks gang. Now I'm really confused. I was just about to list a bunch of burnished AEs and mint sets that are gathering dust. Now I'll have to re-crunch the numbers, again. Is there a better way for us lowly collectors that accidently buy too much to sell excess coins to help promote their habit?
