Hey guys, I brought around 3500 items over from eBay trying to actually merge over to this platform and quit doing eBay. I had high hopes for this platform, but even with a current shadow ban on eBay I’ve still done a few thousand dollars in sales over the past couple weeks yet all of the same items were over here and I did not even make a single sale. I’m done guys. I’m not going to pay these people a membership fee for this nonsense. They don’t even have an app on the App Store. I’m sorry, but this was the biggest waste of time. I think I’ve ever made.

I would recommend using marketplaces for customer acquisition and have a website platform that will sync with eBay to build your own customer base. I call it investing in yourself. Every single order shipped out should have a your website address on it and inside there should be a packing slip with an advertisement for XX % off on your site.
Use the marketplaces to advertise and grow your website’s business. Reality is, selling exclusively on a marketplace puts you at risk of losing all your business in an instant. I say that as someone who was on multiple marketplaces before Bonanza that went “poof” overnight.
Always invest in yourself. Good luck!

For some reason sales have totally died in the past 2 weeks. Never seen it this slow.

Should I post a comment or an answer?
You can only post one answer, so make it count. Maybe your reply is more fitting as a comment instead?
Post an answer for:
- Replies that directly and specifically answer the original question
Post a comment for:
- "Thanks," "Me too," "I agree," or "Works for me" types of replies
- When you would like the original poster to provide more details
- When you have more to add to someone else's question or answer
