Ebay's Lack of Respect For JS Sportscards and Other Sellers means Reduced Listings and Reduced Sales - DSR, Feedback, Increased Fees, Photographs - where does it stop?

Well, the ridiculous again becomes prevalent and the Ebay  rule.  Feedback, DSR's, Increased Fees, Reduced Customer Service, now Picture Size.

Pictures must be more than 500 pixels on a side.

Pictures larger that 7 MB are prohibited.

So what is important - small pictures or large pictures.  Beats me and a lot of others don't understand either.  We don't have the time to review over 3000 pictures and determine if they are compliant or not.

If we could quit working the ever-changing Ebay issues on present listings, we could list more items for sale.  Isn't that what everybody wants, more listings, more sales? Well, apparently not, Ebay must have too many listings and Amazon must really be hopeful that more business will gravitate to them.  Some large auction houses started listing with Ebay but couldn't stand the frequent Ebay changes.  They believe in developing their own system and it works fine for them,  changes that only they design and implement.

We will be transferring much of our inventory to www.jssportscards.com and will be spending the fees that were paid to Ebay in the past, to promote the website. We will better serve our customers in this way.

We will use SEO techniques, Appropriate Advertising, and Email lists with regular notices to grow our business.  

If you would like to be on our email list, please let us know at jssportscards@gmail.com.  We will be glad to work with you.
