I'm just curious. For example you list four items, sell two on the first try, relist the other two and then sell one more. Have you sold 3 out of 4 items for a sell-thru rate of 75% or have you sold 3 out of 6 listings for a sell-thru rate of 50%?

Is this the new math or the old math.
But if you list it a 3rd time and sell it does that count in the first sell through rate?

I think that is a difficult question to answer as everyone thinks different. I do my sell through rate by week what I list (10) items sell (8) sell through rate 80%. If I list it a second time that goes with that week.

I don't care if they sell or not, I just want to pay fees so Meg can retire early!

your sell thru rate is 50%/
number of listing is the denominator,which in your case is 6.
meg is already a multi billionaire,she does not need our help towards early retirement.
can she or does she need to relate to many sellers who are just scraping by ,selling on ebay??
unless she makes the powersellers ebay employees,i dont see how the underwriters could or would offer a good deal.??

Thanks for the input.

Libra - I'm way too young to understand your new math reference (I wish!)

Ha! Cherishedclutter, if you don't understand the "new math" reference, you ARE young - and very lucky not to have been stuck with that junky form of mathematics. Someone here may be able to give you more details on how screwy it really was.

Roadsmith: I was only kidding I do remember new math. Even the term was goofy.
