Oh-oh. Ebay Dump Day is going to be Dump Week

May 7th to 14th all fixed price card sales will have a 50 cent listing fee regardless of price. This might be a good time to wait a week before putting "regular" auction sales on ebay as the vintage card board will be swamped with over-priced inventories from the usual suspects...

Bob - it will be interesting to see as with this promotion it would be 5 times as expensive as usual to dump your whole store. Fifty cents a listing adds up much faster then 10 cents a listing does.

I agree with Matt, the inventory dump culprits actually have to think about this one as .50 each will add up quickly and they can't possibly get that many sales.

Dag-nab-it ebay. Not good timing for me.

I just listed some items a couple days ago with (what I think) are honestly reasonable BIN's. In fact, I had a T206 W.Johnson portrait sell the first day.

I fear my stuff is now more or less burried. Lets see what further sales happen - but not holding my breath.

bad timing here too...

I just listed about 30 T206s last night (ebay id foodledotnet) all pretty much PSA 5 or 6.

Hopefully this won't affect my final sale prices.

Everyone rushes to pump their listings onto Ebay during the 24 hours, with the resulting puppy-through-the-python effect on the system. With this promotion, you can spread out your listings over a week, which is both easier on the casual lister and better for the buyer. I know I'm gonna take full advantage this week. You all might want to run a search for "Exhibitman" listings since there's gonna be some nice prewar stuff there and stuff is going up every day for the week.
