eBay

eBay Express has launched. I was trying to figure out why non of my items were showing, since they all qualify, and I seemed to have all the right things checked off. Then I came across this under rules for being included:

Be registered (the seller) as a US or CA seller (okay)

Items must be located in the US (Huh?)

I certainly hope this is only for the early beta stage.

Does anyone know anything about this?

Do you mean since the "soft" opening in the Spring or in the last few weeks that the first real marketing campaign has started?

During the summer they would have a party on the US Powerseller board if somebody actually had an Express sale.

I have noticed things slowing down tremendously in the past few weeks. There is a hell of a lot less traffic than there was this summer. And summer is usually slower...

Promises a great holiday season for us! What is the solution? Opening a US location near the border? Move to the US? This is getting very complicated...

I also noticed a lot less overseas buyers than there was before. Anyone else experiencing the same? Should I start listing on other ebay sites?

My non USA sales are increasing at a near constant rate. Currently running about 60%.

Interestingly my Canadian sales are also increasing slightly although they still remain quite small.

You are in quite a competative catagory, I imagine your shipping charges alhtough fair are hurting you compared to non-Canadian sellers.
