Re: Wagglepop 2: Deja Vu as Auction Site That Left Sellers Stranded Reopens
After all that I read and saw happen when I was a member in good standing at PopLand and now what I'm reading on this forum and others, not much surprises me anymore concerning WP. I just wish the sellers that have spent countless hours promoting their stores and have complete faith and trust in Ray and his site could see what he is really doing.
Manually updating listings? That should be a HUGE clue that something is not quite right at PopLand. That is just the first of many things I could list, but I won't since they have been posted numerous times here.

[quote author=PC_Gamer link=topic=3775.msg39145#msg39145 date=1167868370] Off Topic Folks, but ebay's annual fee increase is posted fyi http://www2.ebay.com/aw/core/200701.shtm...1-03144839 [/quote] Sniped by PC :blinkie: Now they go after the core. The fur is gonna fly. I bet that is why Ray "cleaned house" last night. He is getting ready for new tenants. [/quote] A very logical conclusion banana! Just another step towards minnowing out the ma and pa "junk" sellers as they've been called. Within 5 years eBay will be made up of bulk sellers and corporations only.
The one thing you can never afford to lose is your temper.

He knew there would be a fee hike and is expecting a new group of disgruntled sellers to come to his site. Let's just hope they do their homework before jumping ship and blindly join his flock.

[/quote] Interesting because the core only sellers blamed the stores, Ebay wants to grow the core, and now raises the core fees. :blinkie: I am wondering if they will attach more insertion fee increases in the other sell price ranges besides just the one. They will probably also raise the FP cost again too. The Store Boards and Seller Central boards will be very interesting. |

So far, the Powerseller's board and the Stores board is taking the news pretty well. I saw one seller say this may break them, but other than that, most don't appear to be too upset...yet. :blinkie:
Never argue with an idiot they drag you down to their level then beat you with experience.

Re: Wagglepop 2: Deja Vu as Auction Site That Left Sellers Stranded Reopens
If I hadn't left wp already, I would surely leave now since I see only showcase and featured stores can be seen. Outrageous! They seem to be taking things away instead of adding new things making it harder and harder for buyers, not to mention sellers, who have been plugging and advertising. Guess they just want more money by forcing people to pay extra to showcase and feature.

I think it addresses his paranoia, he is slowly but surely sequestering the sellers, so the "outside jury" cannot report the facts. It also could potentially increase the enrollment in the showcase and featured stores (more money for Ray) :twistedevil: |

You can still see all the stores. You have to go to the left side of the page and at the bottom of the category box, click on 'view all stores'.

I do agree its to help increase the showcase and featured stores to help replace the money lost from the store closings.

From PSU
Quote:I was over at the TT boards recently to see if what they say about the thread being about more than just bashing WP was true. I asked one simple question, If WP is so bad what other sites can you suggest? I hardly got any responses at all. If that thread was supposed to be about helping than why was my question basically ignored? Because they are not interested in anything but their immature banter about WP. Here are the responses given to this person's question. Quote: Brat. Quote: Bratpack! Quote:The question can't be answered without knowing what you sell, how much you sell, and what country you're based in. And Bratpack's response: Quote: Thanks for the replies. I sell collectable toys, mostly action figures and vintage glass & pottery. I am not looking to start my own website right now, I do not have the time or energy to start a project like that. I just want to stop paying so many high fee's to e-bay, looking to bring down that costly invoice. |
