]]> Comment on eBay Strike 1st May - Groan by Erika http://www.trevorginn.com/ebay-strike-1st-may-groan/#comment-54468 Erika Sat, 03 May 2008 16:59:52 +0000 http://www.trevorginn.com/ebay-strike-1st-may-groan/#comment-54468 What you are failing to realize is that the biggest impact from all of the changes will not be the feedback issue. The single most detrimental issue that is facing sellers is something that has already been implemented in the form of BEST MATCH. Since best match was implemented, my sales have dropped by 75% and Ebay does not seem to care one bit. They are doing everything they can to push small sellers like me straight out of business. Mr. Donahue will have his wish to turn Ebay into another amazon.com and then when things go totally down the toilet for Ebay, I am sure he will jump ship just in time to keep all of his fortunes in tact. What a complete shame Ebay has become. What used to be a great place to shop where a person could find literally anything they were looking for, has now and will more so in the future become just another online retailer. How exciting. In the meantime, I am being forced to close my doors to keep Ebay from stealing any more of my hard earned money, but charging me the same listing fees as the next guy and then burying my listings so that I have no chance in this world of having a decent number of sales. Thanks so much Mr. Donahue. It's been a real pleasure! What you are failing to realize is that the biggest impact from all of the changes will not be the feedback issue.

For newer, more expensive phones, eBay is definiately the better option. My experience is that for the older phones you get more money on envirophone.

]]> Comment on eBay store Design - Does it help? by Jags http://www.trevorginn.com/ebay-storefront-design/#comment-40129 Jags Sat, 12 Apr 2008 17:40:01 +0000 http://www.trevorginn.com/ebay-storefront-design/#comment-40129 I do not think that eBay store design has a -ve effect of visitors of a blog or a webpages... It depends on what type of ebay adds are put in. One can easily integrate ebay adds to a blog post... What do you say about adds seen at blogs like http://www.EGadgetBay.com/ http://www.YogaValue.com/ http://www.TumkurInfo.com/ just to mention few...

]]> Comment on Setting up Outlook for 4 hour Workweek by Chris @ TameBay http://www.trevorginn.com/setting-up-outlook-for-4-hour-workweek/#comment-39133 Chris @ TameBay Fri, 11 Apr 2008 10:11:45 +0000 http://www.trevorginn.com/setting-up-outlook-for-4-hour-workweek/#comment-39133 My tip is to use MailWasher Pro to scan all of your email to cut out the spam, and set rules to bounce any subscriptions that you can't remember how to unsubscribe from. Any unwanted mail that gets through to your Outlook set a rule, or add to the MailWasher Pro blacklist so that you never see it again. From then on send emails from Outlook as and when you want, and let MailWasher Pro cleanse all your incoming email. It's amazing how many emails you really don't want to read that you can prevent from reaching you in the future.
