About how much does it cost to have multiple zen cart sites?

Account processing = Ray's inbox of requests for store closures has been completed. I know of one seller who requested a store closure and Ray waited 2 months to close their store, and then turned around and billed them for the two months. Ray closed their store right before his regular deadbeat sellers post on the forum.

Interesting to note, that when Ray had over 900 stores his posts about deadbeat accounts didn't exist. Hmmmm I wonder why?

At some point or another, each and every seller over there who leaves before WP closes will be called a deadbeat on the boards. Very sad.

Yep...

Quote:Hello Members,

Account processing for April has been completed.

20 accounts have been suspended for non-payment of seller fees as per the User Agreement, and will be referred for collection as is necessary.

Once again, we thank the vast majority of membership for making payment as required and on time

Yes, this morning I was very tempted to post the question "with all these people not paying, do we have any numbers for people who actually left on good terms??" Nono

But, I am probably being watched. Toothy9

Sherrand - thanks for the answer! Amy must be a busy girl!

I actually have my own site too, I will have to share when I come out of the closet. Happy001

Stunned and amazed:

Advanced Selling :Am I seeing things?

Quote:xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx 30 Apr 2007 13:21

Just a couple of days ago, there were 270 stores.

Now there are only 252?? Is that right?? Sad

A poster (not a seller) confirms the horror:

Quote:xxxxxxxx 30 Apr 2007 13:30

yeah probably...in karens april invoice due post, she said there were about 20 account closures for non payment....
so yeah that probably is correct..

CC1 responds. Note the absence of a smilie. I guess KaRay is running out of smiles:

Quote:wagglepopCC1 30 Apr 2007 13:47

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx,

20 accounts were suspended for non-payment during normal end of month processing of accounts for April.

Thank you ever so much u1it4less.
Your most helpful. Love4

I think your the one I should be chatting with.
I simply adore your site with links to the
auctions sites listed all on one page.
How clever!!
I like it.
In the future I will have questions to ask you
on how you did that (if you don't mind).
But not now...
Later when I get all of my products together.
Thanks again!!
bye Hello

Here we go again. Morale has been given another blow and the next listing contest shall begin. But KaRay has stated in the past that listing contests are useless. But this useless endeavour will now cost 10.00.

Advanced Selling: ARE WE READY FOR A LISTING CONTEST?

Quote:xxxxxxxxxxx 30 Apr 2007 13:45

I'm in a listing mood. Anyone else game. I normally let life get in the way when we have these and get side-tracked but we're due.

Have nothing to offer as a prize. If you don't play an instrument or collect sheet music I don't have much for an incentive.

What about if I pay your $9.95 WP store fee for the next month? That would work.

Let me know if you're interested.

Responses:

Quote:As I make my own stuff, I cannot participate, but I am sure people will hop on!!

Free month, I would be on it!!

Quote:I would love to participate! A free month would be nice!

And the ground rules are given:

Quote:Okay ... let's go for it but I'd like to make a few rules. Also would like to wait a day or so to give people a chance to know what we're doing.

1. Start time. Wednesday morning (12:00 AM est). List your number of inventoy here and I'll check them out and keep track of them.

2. End time. Tuesday evening (11:59 PM est). That gives the ones that work away from home a chance for a weekend ... and the ones that work out of their home a chance to get a break over that same weekend.

3. Last fall we had a contest with this rule and I liked it. This will be for ALL NEWLY LISTED INVENTORY. If you sell something ... let us know. You should not be pentalized for a sale ... but that sale has to be WP. If you have an item listed both here at at another location and it sells somewhere else and you 'remove' it from WP ... that should not count. JUST WP SALES.

4. No duplicate listings unless they differ in some way. In other words you can't take 25 of the same gadget and list it 25 times.

5. If you're late you can still join in. Just let us know when you start and your count.

Any other exceptions ... let me know. I would very much enjoy paying next month's WP fee for the one that works the hardest and helps us expand that much more.

This is pathetic, the desperation driving these sellers. Would they ever, ever suggest something like this on another auction site? Has it ever been done on another auction site?

KaRay - you should be ashamed of yourself!! Angryfire

Well, it will be good for some traffic hits. Mostly due to the OP checking listing counts Happy001

Why would you feel you are being watched? Did you do a no,no. Have a post deleted perhaps? Complaining of no sales maybe?

And you are welcome. Amy and BBH share the sites.

And I hope you are doing well on your own website. Built it up, concentrate you time and money on it and you will be farther ahead. Icon_thumright

let the truth be told · 04-30-2007, 10:03 PM,

We should hold a De-listing contest. The prize is your freedom from that waste of time called wagglepop. No rules needed and everyone who takes part is a winner!!!
