I have sent two emails a month for the last 28 months and not had a reply, so I wouldn't worry about it. I must say that all the emails I have ever sent to Alex or Louis have been answerd real quick. Great work. About the ebay sales thing. I tried this and it threw up a lot of problems (not to mention unwarranted suspensions either to do with copy right or keyword spaming ). So i gave up and stuck with conventional sites, I simply spread the word, supply high quality CD,s to who ever wants to pay rather than download and I don't look at it as a way to make money. I have been watching big sellers on ebay for a few months, They always have Featured-plus adverts at £10 a go and place 3 ads a week. Average sale per advert has dropped from 3 per advert to 1 every three adverts. Needless to say they lose money... You can always look at completed listing on ebay if you want to check out the market. I made this link to show the most recently completed Power Sellers (big boys, with expensive ads) on ebay so you can get an idea of what profits are involved. Either click and sign in to ebay, or sign in to ebay before clicking on the link. http://www.hasgot.com/adverts/openoffice/openoffice-ebay.html hope this lot helps. -------Original Message------- From: Richard Fenn Date: 05/12/08 16:20:35 To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [cd-rom] Must I become a Community Distributor in order to sell OOo CDs on EBay? Hi Alex, after reading your reply to David Convengo about distributing via Ebay I thought I better ask a couple of questions. I sent an email to you ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) a few weeks ago regarding distributing Open Office via Ebay but didn't receive a reply. Can you confirm whether you received the email and whether it is ok for me to distribute via Ebay? (I hope so because I've already listed some items). I've already joined all the mailing lists as per your Ebay guidance page. I also wrote to ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) but didn't receive a reply from them either regarding using the logo's etc. I made a box and cd graphic using the graphics that are available on Open Offices site but now I'm wondering whether I'll get into trouble for doing so :( You can view my Ebay listing here and let me know if it's ok or not: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/OPEN-OFFICE-XP-Vista-Word-Excel-Compatible-FREE-Deliver_W0QQitemZ220231818255QQcmdZViewItem?hash=item220231818255 Any help or advice you can give would be great.
