Greetz, all. Long time coming has arrived. Just cancelled my Store
subscription.
Tried to hold out as long as I could, having surgery this Friday on my heel, will have a non-weight bearing cast from toes to knee for 5 weeks. Wanted to inventory all my goods before dropping the Store for good, will advertise all my shirts, blanks shirts, heatpress on various venues, soon. That 15.95 per month in savings I can use for cigars, porn, wth ever, no matter. I am thru with ebay's constant intercoursing the canine. So, there you have it. Another Store bites the dust. Sadly, it appears on the Stores Board that there are numerous, unsuspecting neophytes to replace me. CYA!

Re: Greetz, all. Long time coming has arrived. Just cancelled my Store
It must be the weekend for closing. Overstock issued their 2nd FU to sellers in 2 weeks yesterday so we're pulling out of Overstock and cancelling Marketworks (combined monthly savings of $100 in subscription fees).

I like that description of the eBay selling experience.  Quote:Sadly, it appears on the Stores Board that there are numerous, unsuspecting neophytes to replace me. There always are. I've only glanced at athe stores board a few times in the past month and it doesn't seem like holiday sales are going very well for the average storeowner this year. Quote:having surgery this Friday on my heel good luck with the surgery.

Re: Greetz, all. Long time coming has arrived. Just cancelled my Store
Congrats to Sliique! I hope to be doing the same soon. I reduced the inventory down to 1/4 of what it was. I still want more volume from my web site and the eBay Store is paying for itself so I figure it is advertising (better than Google Adwords IMHO). It is just a pain to have dual inventory--I'm manually deleting items that are in both as they sell. It is good for harvesting buyers. Just got an $80 web site sale from an auction customer
 .Quote:cancelling Marketworks Wow. I've sometimes wondered if I should have gone that route for my site since I still use eBay to some degree. However, eBay is so expensive compared to what it was that I really want to get away from it altogether. Kim P.S. Good luck with the surgery.

Good luck on the surgery and congrats on the store closing. (How messed up is that? In preinternet days we'd be congratulating people on opening stores).
