Thanks to your informing me of this, I was able to dig a bit deeper and discovered some more oddities. Here is what I discovered: These numbers were taken from Terapeak and are based on a 90 day history (March 2, 2008- May 31, 2008. The most current info at the time of publishing): Seller: Buy Total Items Listed: 2,708,987 Total sales: $3,924,907 Successful listings: 64,638 Total Items Offered: 249,431,285 Sell through rate: 2.39% Average Sale: $44.43 MINIMUM listing fee, including dutch auctions: $24,943,128.5 (Based on the lowest fee of .10 per listing, and offering Media Mail. Does not include higher listing fees, or other promotional listing fees, or Final Value Fees, which would increase the fees dramnatically). Thanks “Donuts”.
