I just checked my last 20 sales.
Store at ebay - 8 sales
Store at Vendio - 1 sale
ebay Core Auctions - 10 sales
Mixed - Store at ebay & ebay Core - 1 sale
50% of my sales came from core auctions which had no reduced price.
6 of the 20 sales were International. 3 of the International sales were from my store at ebay, while 2 of the sales came from core auction, and 1 sale was the 50/50 mix of store at ebay and auction.
So, over a quarter of my sales were International, 1/2 of which came from the store at ebay.
What is the analysis of your last 20 sales. Keep it at 20 so it is easier to visualize.

Last 20 - all eBay store sales but I didn't have auctions end this weekend. 25% international - a little low for me but I think fewer international buyers have access to the internet on weekends than US buyers.
Edited to add: good thread Kozersky, hope others respond

My last 20 were over the weekend - like Pixia, I didn't have many auctions because last weekend was a holiday and I took some time off. The sales are therefore skewed towards store - 75%/25% (I usually run about 50-50)
I had 15 ebay store sales and 5 core sales.
No international buyers.
I had 2 combo (store&core) transactions.
My Vendio store is closed until I can figure out what I am doing with it.

19 core, 1 store. 3 to Canada, 1 to Belgium and the rest in the U.S mostly to the east coast.
I did take most everything out of my store and listed it in core during the listing sale however.
I've started tracking my sales on Google Earth. You can put a push pin at the address your sale is at. I also label each push pin with the date of the sale. I've discovered that I have a lot of sales to the east coast and in the morning vs the evening closings. So I've decided to start trying to get up at o dark 30 to launch and close my auctions.

We are not selling on eBay right now but only in our cyber mall shop so our sales were 100% store and all domestic.
As an aside, the December sales in our cyber shop were more than 5X our usual month. We are small time seller compared to most of you but I was not expecting that. I had to laugh the week my sister called to complain that she had to get 14 packages ready to mail in one week. I expect many of you do more than that every day.
