Myth or Fact? Ending Items Ruins Rank of other items.
I am curious about something I heard today. "Constantly ending items or ending too many items at once will reduce the rank of your other items. Don't be surprised if you see your sales reduce after ending ten or more items at once."
Myth or fact. I've ended as many as 12 items at once, but I was selling very few items on the account anyway so I didn't notice any reductions in sales.
The complete step-by-step guide to get back to selling today!

Unless you can prove otherwise - I would say rubbish. I cannot see such algorithm benefiting or harming ebay in anyway - for them to incorporate such feature.

Not even the ebay reps know if this is true! Now if you get to be best-friends with an Ebay IT....and they give you a 100% for sure answer....then I would believe it.

Even then devs wouldn't reveal such info. These tend to be top secret. But if you've been on ebay for a decade or more, you should know all the tricks in the book by now.

That is something that actually sounds realistic - but the fact its not under dashboard could imply its not such a big factor. Though I am certain ebay will call you upon it for ending listings early when there are active bids (if abused of course)
