If you are like me you are getting sick of paying fee after fee on Ebay. I frankly gave up trying to make a buck over at Ebay because I was paying so much in fees I was actually losing money. I know more than my fair share of work at home moms that feel the same way. Finally, one of my work at home mom friends introduced me to Ecrater. A new site like Ebay that eliminates those seller fees. Read on to find out why Ecrater is the best alternative to Ebay.

If Ecrater doesn't charge any fees how can they make money? I wondered the same thing. Actually it turns out they are more like those sites that are free to join and then have an upgrade option. Ecrater makes money when people purchase a premium listing, getting them to the top of their category. It's not necessary to go with this option at this time. I found everything just fine and I didn't even notice any premium listings. I also wanted to point out that there are no fees when your product is sold either so sellers KEEP 100% of their profits!

I have my own Ebay store. Can I have a store at Ecrater? Yes, everyone is given a free store. You can pick your own name for it and then you can set it up. You don't have to know html either. It's made simple so anyone can do it. You can create categories in your store and upload images for each category, etc. There is so much you can do and it's all free.

There are some things you can't sell on Ecrater that you can sell on Ebay. Most of us, however, would never sell these things anyway. Some of them include: live animals, human body parts or organs, prescription drugs, prostitution, firearms and ammunition, tobacco and cigars, pirated items, copyrighted materials, and counterfeit designer items. You can also not sell any fake documents, but I think that should be understood without saying.

Takeaways
  • Ecrater is totally free and has no seller fees.
  • Get your own Ecrater store totally free.
  • Design your own categories and spruce up your store.

You can go to soauctionit.com and sell your ditigal prducts there... Their fees are alot less then ebay. They are new however, they have had success with the search engines picking them up fast. They just need more sellers like you. Thanks, Matt Soares
