I am considering this marketplace to expand my business from ebay. I am tired of all the fees associated with ebay. It's awful. I just wanted to know if anyone else had an ecrater store and what they thought of it. Thanks bunches!

I do. It's free to list there, but you have to do a lot of promoting to drive people to see your items. I have an online shop at Etsy and they don't care for "double-listings" so I can't double list my items on ecrater. I guess if you have the time to promote your ecrater site, through blogging and forums, then Ecrater is much easier than Ebay, with their fees and their 7 day auctions, where you can sometimes sell an item worth $30.00 for the opening bid of .99. Good Luck with it if go that route and I hope you share your experiences with us!

A couple things is a good start! Once you get a little momentum, it can snowball into finding regular customers and a positive reputation. Just from myLot, I know you already are good at promoting and marketing, so you should do well.

I haven't sold anything yet but my store is up and running and I'm very hopeful to the future. I'm now going to shamelessly promote: http://theswordguys.ecrater.com/ : Tell me what you think, what you really think.

I recently opened an ecrater store due to an indefinite suspension from eBay. Like some other commenters mentioned, it takes a lot of self-promotion to get it going. I've only sold a few items but I think it's starting to pick up. It's an easy and inexpensive way to start an online store. I highly recommend to newcomers. If anyone needs a Sprint cell phone visit our store at: http://ggpelectronics.ecrater.com/ Thanks.

Hi there, I am just starting to set up my ecrater store. I am also tired of ebay fees and they have been getting more and more expensive. I am hoping to link it to my store website for more exposure as well. www.circavintageshoppe.com Good luck to all of you!

I think tha ecrater is getting better every day. I have around 1-2 sales per day now in my www.gifts101.ecrater.com store and it's working out great. The trick is - list as much as possible. I have over 800 items listed now, and traffic is better than never. They also opened a UK marketplace recently, which is now responsible for half of my sales.

I have an ecrater store, and I can tell you form experience that I prefer it to ebay AND to having a store on my own domain. I got more hits, and sold more items on my ecrater store. I closed the store in 2010 after the birth of a child. I have re-opened a brand new store this month, and I hope to do as well as I did several years ago. Come take a look at my store. it's called Enchanted Hearth. I sell Pagan, Wiccan and other Metaphysical and Occult gifts, ritual and spell supplies. http://enchantedhearth.ecrater.com/

I just found out about ecrater last week. I haven't done anything with it yet since I am still in the middle of building my Ebay store. I am taking on to many sites at once, it's killing my family time. I may start building the ecrater store though, these ebay fees are pathetic. IndigoRacer Powersports & Supply

I just started selling on ecrater back in September 2010. I have had many hits but no sells yet but I am very hopeful. I sell items on ebay but the fees are crazy and there are too many people on one site selling practically the same items. Ecrater is different and you have a variety of choices. Plus it's free. You really have to promote alot and it can be time consuming. I am working to get more traffic to come through on my site. If interested I have a shoe company called House Of Unique Shoes,Inc. I sell womens shoes (New/Preowned), handbags and accessories. www.houseofuniqueshoesinc.ecrater.com

Well,I started my ecrater store about 1 week ago. http://uniquities.ecrater.com/ I've no sales as of yet,but it does look promising and I'm enjoying their administrative tools. I'm sure it takes a lot of promotion but if you've got the time and the fortitude I'm sure you can make it work. Good luck.;-)
