I wonder if the store that closed today and had approximately 3600 items listed was able to pull the listings, or if they are still being counted in Pop Land's listings. Since we know that happens, maybe that is why the listing number didn't drop very much. Icon_scratch

I wish someone had a few of the item number's from that seller so we could see if they are still there and being counted in the 'active' listings.

It's really bizarre to have listed so much and then "poof" be gone. I don't even know but one or two sellers over there now.

:o

Hey everyone google the large store that closed today and look at all the active listings. In fact here is the link.

Checkout this link it looks as if they have been gone since October or tried to move since then. Who knows.

Why does that not surprise me one bit to find listings from a closed store still active.

Any WP members want to try to explain how a closed store can still have active items? Give it your best shot.

Well, that was quite informative.

Maybe he can use it as a big tax write off anyway.

Hi Truth,
Arcane didn't leave until recently. I've been anticipating this move as the seller had indicated to me months ago that they would be pulling out in the new year. True to his word.

I believe he was, in the meantime, looking for a new site to list from before making the break. I'm assuming he found it and wish him the best of luck there; or wherever he ends up. Thumbsup

If you talk to him again let him know that over 1300 listings of his remained active. I figured he should know that he is being advertised still.

Quote:The Three Year Plan

To achieve our stated intermediate three year goal, we have created an updated three year plan beginning with this quarter, with the benchmarks and subsequent effects outlined below.

Date Benchmark Listings (All Formats) Stores**
As of 1/19/07 Current 149,674 420
January 2008 Benchmark 2.5% 1.5 million 3,125
January 2009 Benchmark 5% 3 million 6,250
January 2009 Intermediate Goal 10% 6 million 12,500

From the most recent edition of WP Today.

When they had the sellers and had gone way beyond their projected benchmarks, they treated sellers like dirt. They missed their prime opportunity to really make this site "the" place to be. I guess greed got in the way of good judgement.

JMHO
