also have some items on eBay, search seller btdhome.

[btdhome]

Well, sales are starting to pick up again.
So I added some more new listings to my store and a few auctions too.
Pushed it back up to 1460 or so.

[btdhome]

after some sales, once again am back around 1470 or so.
added some Superman, Kabuki, Green Arrow and some clearance comics.

[btdhome]

Pushed my listing count back up to 1500 or so this week.

Forgot to mention, I do combine shipping on all purchases, wether auction or store listing.

1-5 comics + $2.50
and so on.

See my eBay store for a complete run down.

[btdhome]

Boy, sales are great, so I think about really boosting my listings, then they die off again, so I don't.
One of these days, I'll just have to jump in with both feet.

Anyway, listed some more comics, some MtG CCG cards, and some new books, inluding the new Star Wars novel autographed by the author.

[btdhome]

Been moving items out of the country this week.
Dollar must be down again.

[btdhome]

This couple of weeks, I'm canceling all my store listing to change them to 30 day instead of GTC.
Some older items will be relisted at a lower price (or not at all).
Planning on moving to Bidville.com with most of my store items.
Will post the addy when set-up is complete.

[btdhome]

as you can see, I went with Blujay instead of Bidville.
Was only looking for a store site, not so much auctions.

Got a hundred or so listed so far.
Still have a couple hundred at eBay as well.

New lower prices at Blujay store, passing along the savings!

[Hoss]

Congrats! Good luck with the new location!

[SatansProdigy]

Hey btd

How's the traffic on Blujay? I haven't checked them out yet. Do they have a bulk lister?

[btdhome]

Traffic's pretty much nonexistent.
It's BYOC (bring your own customer)

Mostly, I was just looking for a place to hold the items available on the web. Figure I'd have to drive traffic no matter were else I went.

At the moment, no bulk lister available.
Boardies seem to think one's coming, but ???

[btdhome]

got my Blujay store up to 265 listings.
ebay store is slowly dying off, matching the sales trend.

Don't know if it was the combination of all the price hikes and search changes or.. it might be that Mile High has a shipping sale on at the moment.

[btdhome]

Looks like I'm gonna join the crowd and close my ebay store.
No store item sale for nearly a month now.
Probably list some auctions though, and try to drive buyers to my Blujay store.

[btdhome]

ebay store is gone now.
The lack of search results is what killed it. I clould have survived the higher fees with the sales I once had. But when they pulled store inventory from the search results, they pulled the rug out from under me.
Sales dropped to zip within a few weeks.

So now, I'm listing all my store inventory over at Blujay and hey, I'm the top lister in the comics catagory.

[btdhome]

still offering occassional items on ebay auctions.
listing lots on Blujay right now.
Have sold some there too!

[btdhome]

plenty more goodies added this week.
Almost every item cheaper than they were in my ebay store.

[btdhome]

listings up over 1400 now.
Been selling some here and there.

[fulltimer56]

Well, you got a few less since I have visited your store!!! LOL

[btdhome]

Thanks Linda, Happy Holidays!

Added a batch of comic and fan magazines today.

[btdhome]

Man I miss the old days of multiple orders in the e-mail every morning.

Anyway, did add some recent DC's from the last couple of years, as well as a lot of misc. items. Most under a buck or so.

[btdhome]
