Survey Says… 50% of eBay sellers leaving within 6 months

Posted by thatedeguy on 19th September , 2006 - no responses

AuctionBytes did a pretty good survey of online sellers and some of the results may surprise you.  Or, if you’re feeling the new store fees too, they may not.

50% of the eBay sellers said that they would be moving on from eBay within 6 months.  That’s a pretty big number.

There are some fairly surprising numbers in that survey.  I’m a little surprised that that big of a number don’t plan on selling on eBay in 6 months.  I certainly plan on still being around, but not at current levels.  I’ve already pulled over 100 store listings with more to come.  I most likely will end up opening a store at eBid or somewhere similar.

I still think that eBay is the best place to list things for auction and if the fees weren’t so high, it would be the best place for store listings as well.  Of course, if you can afford it and have the knowhow, a online store of your own is still the best way to go.
