Bonus FVF Discounts for Business Sellers in March
We recently announced substantial changes to the eBay marketplace for 2008. These changes are designed to provide clear incentives and rewards for sellers to continue offering good service, and give buyers even greater confidence to come back more.Since we announced our Final Value Fee (FVF) discount scheme for high volume sellers who offer great customer service, we’ve been encouraged by the intense focus that our seller community have placed on improving their own Detailed Seller Ratings (DSRs). To support this effort, sellers will be excited to hear that we’ve set up an extra bonus discount for Final Value Fees recorded in March.If your 30-day DSRs score is higher than 4.6 across all four DSRs at the end of March, eBay will reward you with an extra 20-40% discount on your Final Value Fees for your selling activity in March. That means that sellers could earn up to 80% off Final Value Fees in March.
This offer is open to all business sellers who are currently eligible for FVF discounts on the UK or IE site, and is applicable to all formats. Items must be listed on either eBay.co.uk or eBay.ie. Bonus discounts will be paid as a credit in your May invoice.
“Higher than 4.6″? so is that 4.7 and above?? If eBay are going to make significant announcements like this, a bit of clarity would not go amiss.
Perhaps it is a clue to the function of the forthcoming Seller DSR dashboards, where we can monitor DSR performance on a daily basis - reading between the lines, it could mean 4.61 and above. These dashboards are due to be rolled out “towards the end of the month” claim ebay in their usual vague announcements.
