Dear C., nice and clear explanation. Thanks and [URL removed]

So are you saying that if I turn “off” “google shopping” in the booth settings it will turn off the “google organic search”? or will the "google organic search remain on? I’d rather just turn it off, cause I don’t understand if I import new items if this “google shopping” “on” with move new imports into the 9% category, even if I have the “advertise” setting on 3.5% fvf economy. But I’d hate to miss out on a “google organic search” if I can get a sale from a free google search.

I’m still not understanding fully what the point of having this duplicate setting in the “booth setting” when it appears to be taken care of in “booth advertise”?
Why would I be able to turn it “on” in booth settings, but off on the “advertise” selection of “economy”.
Why does Bonanza have a Mystery warning not to turn it off without explaining what it does or show that it costs 9% to add it? something similar to “if you don’t know what this means, don’t do it” message?
Is the default the 9% when you first import your ebay listings for the first time if you don’t switch this “booth setting, google shopping on” to off? Even though it doesn’t mention that your getting charged 9% to leave it on (the default)?

I don’t remember seeing either of these options the first time I imported my ebay listings on signup.

But when I look at my fees, I got charge 9% instead of 3.5% even though when I signed up I was assured I would still be saving money over ebay fees if I agreed to the 3.5% buyer discount on ebay imports. I thought the total amount I would be giving up was going to be 7%, but instead it ended up being 12.5% which is more that what it would have cost me when the item would of sold on ebay.
I do understand the ability to sell is 3 times greater if you pick the basic 9% fee, but with the 3.5% ebay import discount this doesn’t do me any good if the item will eventually sell on ebay anyway. And if I use the 9% advertise feature to get a more realistic sales increase through google shopping then I wouldn’t want to use the Bonanza 3.5% or 1% ebay import discount option. The 9% fee is probably pretty much the same as ebay store fees of 9% and on some things only 4,5,6,7, and 8%, but with the added shipping fee % and store fee, its probably pretty close or Bonanaza might still be cheaper. So the 9% option still might be viable, just without the ebay import discounts.

However I just want to make sure I’m on the 3.5% plan, hopefully still with organic google searches even if I turn the “google shopping” off in the booth settings? Cause I did get one sale from either bonanza or an organic google search….it didn’t specifiy which, I don’t think, just that it was at the 3.5% rate.

I do think it would be good to have multiple rate choices on each and every item, if this is possible. I think I would be more than willing to accept the higher 9% or possible 13% rates on items I’ve relisted more than a few times on ebay, but I’d rather set my easy to sell items and new listings at the 3.5% rate.
Thanks
