Yeah race to the bottom, I do the opposite. Better to have the correct item, price according to needed margin and wait, it will sell. Less is more, your comp will sell 2 for your 1 sold. Just a different angle, do the opposite sometimes is a benefit.

You can't really 'build' an EB business, because they can yank the rug out from under you and shut you down any day for any reason anytime.

And because EB decides who and what is seen and when, any effort to 'build a business' there is completely subject to their whims.

What good is the lowest price and best service and most exciting product and greatest pictures if you're never seen in search?

The only way you can build your business is have your own website platform.

Use EB as a step to your own platform that can never be taken away or used against you.
