I am wondering if there is a way to see how much is being sold on eCrater. Like is there a completed section that I am missing?
Thanks

Not to mention feedback will only show for ONE item and not the whole order

Thank you for the information. I was just interested in doing some research as to how well the items sold here. On my powersellersunite site they rank this in the top 5 auction sites!

Yeah, but that PSU ranking is weird since eCrater isn't an auction site.

The success of stores at eCrater depend solely on the store owner. So items sell if you have something people want and if you can direct them to your store.

PSU lists many store flat priced sites. They just call them auction sites. They list per amount of items listed, not sold.

eBay only has a 40% sell rate on average with many categories being much lower than that and that does not take into account non paying bidders. This means if ebay has 20 million listings, on average only 8 million sell leaving 12 million not sold.

I for one found my items I just bought thru the ecrater portal and I would expect most new comers will as well. Unless people are searching for highly rare, unusual items, thru google, etc, small stores selling common goods will easily get lost in google and other search engines.

If I type in socks into google shopping, I get nothing but the biggest chains. I think people who are fighting the ecrater portal are shooting themselves in the foot.

Not to say business does not fall on the store owner, it does. If a seller is not listing marketable stuff, they will get no sales. But this doesn't change how powerful the ecrater search can be.

Along these same lines, is there a way for us to place a link either into our listings or maybe on our home page that would take potential customers to someone elses e-crater store?
