I might use fixed price on consumer items or cheap collectibles that we happen to have in large quantities - stocking stuffer kind of things, but it's a low priority for me. Otherwise, the fixed price format has little interest for me as far as my posters and other collectibles go. I would see its use mainly as advertisement of marginal value, since I still maintain an eBay store with 1300 items.
I've had good luck with an End of Summer sale - only 2 days left - in which I've priced everything in my eBay store down by 10%, and have invited best offers on all items as well. I'm more generous with people who purchase multiple pieces, of course, or when they make offers on something out of my own collection rather than from consigned items. I'm thinking that I might leave everything or a lot of things at Submit Best Offer through the end of the year, even after the prices go back up, but haven't yet decided. BTW - anyone on MOPO who wants to take advantage can receive equivalent or better deals on any item from my off-eBay store (where I have near 4000 items). Everything in the eBay store is also at ckmac.com. You can get an automatic 10% discount using the code SUMMER08, and if you want to make an offer on multiple items, you can either e-mail me directly or take a (fully revisable) order through to confirmation, picking the request-a-discount option on shipping and payment pages.

This is mainly addressed to sellers on EBAY in this group. I was wondering about people's reactions to the new 30 day Fixed Price Listings and resultant sales. Anybody have any thoughts on this? PLease chime in.
