    Tracking packages in real time

    For a high end product it could work. Look at how many cars are bought and sold on Ebay Motors and shipped across the country. If I paid tens of thousands for a car that is coming from several states away it would be cool to see where it's at and when it would arrive. The buyer is probably...

    The Biggest Thing Since Amazon to Happen To .com

    MARKETING 
    EBay opted me into the program when it was in beta, but I opted out. The reason being: I can ship my items internationally myself cheaper than what the Global Shipping Program can, you can't combine multiple items into one shipment with the program, and I sell antiques so some items were...

    On the news - things employees wanted most

    I saw this snippet on the news this morning and thought it was crazy that these little things sound like huge perks to employees. I work for myself and can do basically whatever I want whenever I want. "If you could have one perk at your workplace, what would it be? A new CareerBuilder...

    Fastlane Wedding Events?

    Also, I'm in charge of taking the RSVP's for the event which is kind of a pain. I think there is a need with that also. I'm looking into it, there are several services, but it seems fairly labor intensive.

    Thanks for the reply. It is definately a weird situation. I did these affiliate marketing programs through clickbank and other independent sites about 7 years ago and advertised them through adwords, which was okay back them. I stopped advertising them probably 6 years ago when they weren't...

    I was wondering if you have any tips to get back on adwords after having an account suspended arbitrarally. I was suspended for some affiliate marketing I did years ago that no longer meets their TOS. I now have my own website that I want to market. They said not to open another account but I...

    Adwords Account Suspended, not sure what is wrong

    MARKETING 
    Just as an update. I finally got a email from G stating that the account was suspended due to violations from affiliate programs I advertised from 7 years ago. It seems to be bad business that they would suspend me today for something that they were allowing me to promote back then. Anyway I...

    Shipping Question

    I ship everyday using usps. A lot of the items are under $20.00. Paypal has a shipping section where you can print the labels directly from their site, you get the commercial rate from Pitney Bowes if you use them. If the items weigh under 13oz you can use the first class service which takes 3-5...

    So does anyone have any experience with being suspended and reinstated? Its been almost 3 weeks since the suspension, I called again 2 weeks ago and they said they are reviewing the account. I don't want to bug them, but would like to know what is happening.

    Yes, are correct about doing things in batches. I normally will spend a couple hours taking pictures and then have enough item done to work on their listings for a couple days. As a tip, you can search for only the "completed listings" on ebay to see generally what your item will sell for...

    If you are going to make this a real gig I recommend you buy yourself a Brother QL-570 thermal label printer and the generic 2 3/4" label rolls of off amazon. This has been the best thing I've ever bought for my Ebay business. It saves you so much time and you get a shipping discount when you...
