Mighty Leaf Tea Company packages its loose tea in silk pouches rather than conventional filter teabags. It does not, however, seem to improve the taste of the tea.

Way to go, jewelry! Six months is great! There's a lot of hard work behind all those listings, so congratulations on a job well done!

I have one of those “old” certificates eBay sent out one year (sometime back in the 90’s) about Sales and Leadership.....a real antique now!
I am still a PS, but I don't work at it, and if I drop off once in a while, I don't care - I don't find it any advantage except in getting half intelligent support responses. Of course over the years, we have move 99% of our sales to web sites, which means, what I do or don't do on eBay has little effect on our income.
But, congratulations on your PS accomplishment.

I am a power seller now, but it will probably go away this summer. That's because I am going to take over a month off, go to Alaska, go to Nevada - No complaints here! It will come back when I go back to work.

While posts like those from jackswebb may appear cynical; it's just reality. And jackswebb hits the nail on the head.
I have been an on and off PowerSeller, depending on how hard I want to work. When I first saw the Power Seller icon next to my ID, I got all excited. But, I certainly can't see any benefit from it, in the least. In my experience, it does not effect sell through rates or bids. It's really worthless. Well, not to eBay, who takes it to the bank from the fees from our listings.

I'm a seasonal power seller. About 6 months out of the year I can qualify and the rest of the time I'm under the minimum.
Ebayvet..If you're going to take time off to go to Alaska, why in the world would you want to come back
