I’ve been reading up on the ways to advertise my items. I have a Basic Store on Ebay, and I use the Bonanza option to upload my items from Ebay when I list new things. Now, if I choose to advertise my Bonanza items from Bonanza to Ebay, is it best to keep my Ebay store (and keep paying their extra fees…) or get rid of that store, and just list on Bonanza, and advertise to Ebay from here? I sell quite a bit on Ebay, but they take so many fees, I don’t make much profit! Can someone explain this to me, slowly and clearly?? I’m confused by all this…. thanks!

Let’s assume for a minute that you have no listings over on eBay at all.
Okay, if you “advertise” (export) from Bonanza to eBay, your listings will be exported to eBay from Bonanza. So, you would have the same exact listings at both places. However, if you sell something on eBay that listing would also be deleted over here on Bonanza. Likewise, if you sell something on Bonanza it would be deleted over on eBay.
Also, if the listing sells over on eBay, you would get charged (approximately) a 1.5% fee.
If you’ve already got your listings set up over on eBay I would not worry about the advertise to eBay from Bonanza. I assume that some people like having this feature where when the listing sells that the listing will delete automatically. Also, if someone has a whole bunch of listings only on Bonanza, it would be a huge chore to manually put the listings over on eBay, so the 1.5% is a good trade off. The seller would, though, have to manually go into the listings over on eBay and take out any reference of Bonanza or any parts to the listing that goes against eBay’s rules.
I hope this helps. Good luck with eBay and Bonanza.

So if we sell only here on Bonz, is it advertised on ebay as an auction or as an off site sale at a sat price………or as a set price ebay sale?
Do we physically place it there, or is that automatic for us?
