New Ebay Fees
I am just looking into the impact of the new Ebay fees which are supposed to help sellers. In our case, it may negatively impact my business so we are looking into closing our Ebay store. Since Larry is retiring at the end of May, we are going to expand on our physical shows and have our products available in more states. This has always been where we make the most money so it makes since to expand in that direction instead of trying AGAIN to cope with website and Ebay changes. We may also look into making better use of our physical presence at the South Tacoma Antiques and Collectibles mall. Because of 2 break-ins, we no longer trust putting certain jewelry items at the antique mall but it is still our best bet to expand versus the on-line area. We will continue to post our show schedules online at ALDAJewelryandGifts.com, We will keep you posted here and on our website about any other new changes.
