In this video, I walk through what really happened after I turned off all promoted listings in my eBay store for a full month—right after eBay announced changes to how promoted listing sales will be attributed. I compare my sales and profits from the 30 days before I shut off promotions to the 30 days after. Then, for those who like the long-form reseller content, I share a full Salvation Army thrift haul—including a rare Car Talk NPR mug, vintage pottery, a Cleveland Indians Encyclopedia Easton Press edition, Amazon vests, a DARE hoodie, a local Chicago radio station tee, Brooks Brothers Red Fleece, a Punisher jersey, a Macy’s teddy bear, a SlumberPod, and a set of USA-made Oster clippers with an Operation Homefront design. I talk through why I picked each item up, how I researched comps, and what I’m expecting from them once they’re listed. If you’ve been wondering whether to risk turning off promoted listings before eBay’s policy change kicks in, watch this video to see the actual numbers, hear the pros and cons, and decide whether it’s time to run your own experiment in your store.
