I just finished listening to a podcast interview that Ina did with Greg Fant VP of North America marketing for eBay and it was a great interview. If you are selling on eBay, I highly recommend you listen to this one as it provides great insight into how eBay is focusing on connecting buyers and sellers together.

Recently, the news came out that eBay will be opening a retail location ( yes a physical location ) on 11/20/09 for the holidays in New York City. Here is a link to the information for your reference. My good friend John from ColderICE got noisy on this announcement focusing on if JD (John Donahoe) lied at Shop.org saying that eBay is not a retailer and then here they are opening a physical retail location.

Click Here At this point I was totally worried that my office building may be possessed by ghosts because the un-imaginable happened. I’m really not much of a believer in ghosts drinking coffee and stuff, but at this moment I was seriously re-considering my beliefs. I guess you could say my stomach saved me...

A couple weeks ago, I mentioned in a twitter post that my favorite eBay Powerseller coffee mug was not as shinny new as it once was. Months of coffee and tea will do that you know, and yes I wash it. Yesterday, I received a special delivery from the UPS guy and opening the box with anticipation as if it was Christmas all over again, I am surprised to find 2...

I’m referring to sales volume for a SKU. Scot Wingo posted a great blog post on Seeking Alpha about one of his customers getting great volume on one SKU from the deal of the day on eBay. It is a good post and receiving a lot of comments. (Go here to check it out: http://seekingalpha.com/article/110639-is-ebay-s-strategy-working? ) I’ve been doing a test on the same topic and decided now is a good time to share my results. For this test, I took a very hot toy item and listed this item...

Think about this for a minute. How many people do you think were sitting at their computer yesterday logged into eBay.com, the day before, the day before, the day before, and the day before hitting refresh, refresh, refresh, refresh,.......... trying to win a $1.00 door prize? I confess, I tried winning a $46k Corvette ( Check it out ) yesterday during lunch. We all know how that ended if you read our member forums . Is it 1,000's, 10,000's, 100,000's, even 1,000,000's of people?...
