eBay has been a green company since day one! I mean think about it, this has been a marketplace providing a way for all users to buy and sell used products. Keeping products out of landfills and making money at the same time! What more could anyone ask for! THANKS EBAY!
86 million buyers and sellers on eBay have reused over $100 billion worth of products since 1998.
eBay staff has been a part of the “Green Team’ for several years as they were making eBay a Greener place to work. This team has evolved into a huge organization standing behind a great cause!
The Green Team was developed and launched publicly last month. I was honored to have Libby Reder on my radio show @ PowerSellingMomRadio.com . Libby is the Program Manager of Global Citizenship at eBay. “The green team evolved very organically” she shares with us during the interview. She further explains how eBay's leadership stands behind this project 100% with creating a "Greener eBay!"
John Donahoe, eBay's CEO was part of the "Green Vine" cutting ceremony during the grand opening of eBay's "Mint" building in May, 2008. This building holds 3,248 solar panels covering 60,000 square feet. And was designed and built to the U.S. Green Building Council’s Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) Gold standard. (more details and photos on this project can be read at: eBayInkBlog.com.
Join the Green Team today and you could WIN! They are giving away some great prizes, including a $5,000.00 shopping spree! (yes I already entered and boy would I love to go shopping with that!) And, if you are a winner please visit my eBay store! ((smiles)) It's easy to enter, check it out at: Enter To Win
The eBay green team can use people like you on their team sharing ideas, exchanging green tips and just browsing through the green community. Learn more at: eBayGreenTeam.com
NOTE: "Earth Day is April 22"

“Twitter is a Tweet Tool!” Now say it 10 times as fast as you can. After you try that you will get the “fun” feeling that Twitter is.
Twitter allows us to mix business with pleasure. The best way to describe twitter: Twitter is a social, real-time, LIVE, short messaging system. It alloys you to post a message, under 140 characters and send it out to all those that are following you. Those people can then read the message directly from their twitter home page.
Many eBay members including staff, have joined in with the networking process. Staying up-to-date with trends and eBay happenings.
Visit my twitter page at: Twitter.com/PowerSellingMom.
Staying active in Twitter can help build a client base. Business owners can seek out customers by using the search box within the twitter system. The key is to grow your following and to follow those that interest you. It's a fun way to socialize and to blend business with pleasure.
You can send "Tweets" from your cell phone,computer,iphone and many different applications within the internet.
You can add a Twitter widget to your MySpace page, Facebook, blogs and/or websites. I have one at the bottom of PowerSellingMom.com.
They have several styles of widgets to pick from. I have a different one on each of my sites.
To learn more about Twitter, visit: The Twitter Blog.
Once you sign up, please "Follow Me" at: http://twitter.com/powersellingmom
For the experienced "Twit", here is a very cool counter you can add to your website, MySpace, Blog or any site you would like. Called:Twitter Count.

So, whether you’re an eBay Twit or just an internet Twit, this tool will work for all involved!

There is a powerful movement called: Stand Up To Cancer. This nonprofit organization has joined the force through MissionFish by entering into the system. Now, Stand Up To Cancer has been launched into the eBay Giving Works platform which allows this organization even more worldwide exposure. Everyone can find amazing auction and eBay store items supporting this cause People around eBay land and the world are Standing Up To Cancer, including myself.
Did you know that 1 in 3 people will be affected by cancer? Did you also know that cancer takes 1 person every minute? Cancer is out of control.
I lost my dad to rectal cancer in 2005. He was at the young of 61 and had just retired. This horrible disease has made my family and I very mad. I am Standing Up To cancer and will do my best to help support this cause.
Read a segment from Stand Up To Cancer’s (SU2C) mission Statement: Working with the top experts in cancer research, Stand Up To Cancer is forging a new way to develop breakthroughs that will end cancer. We’re putting together the best and the brightest minds in cancer research – those on the edge of accomplishment – investing in their projects and taking the bureaucratic obstacles out of their way. We are building interdisciplinary “Dream Teams” of scientists, clinicians, technicians and other experts, who will focus on a specific cancer problem. We’ll track their progress in real time, so that everyone who invests can see how their participation is creating real change.
I personally kicked off my own campaign to do my part by using the convenience of the eBay Giving Works platform. I created: TheTravelingCharityBag.com and I will point this domain to each listing that goes into the Giving Works system helping a cause.
The traveling charity bag is launching off with eBay item number:160276749832.
To learn more about Stand Up To Cancer, you can watch the YouTube video by Katie Couric explaining it all.
On September 5th, the television networks: ABC, CBS and NBC are networking together for 1 hour of commercial-free prime time to raise funds for the fight against cancer. Over 50 of the most renowned personalities in TV, film, sports and music will come together to make history!
Including: Jennifer Aniston, James Taylor, Scarlett Johansson, Meryl Streep, David Cook, Christina Applegate, Lance Armstrong, Jack Black, Kirsten Dunst, Charles Barkley, America Ferrera, Halle Berry, Hilary Swank, Forrest Whitaker, Jimmy Fallon, Keanu Reeves * will make personal appearances on the show.
ONE NIGHT ONE STAGE
The premiere TV performance of “Just Stand Up” – the star studded charitable single in support of Stand Up To Cancer will be performed by legendary recording artists Mariah Carey, Beyonce, Mary J. Blige, Rihanna, Fergie, Sheryl Crow, Miley Cyrus, Melissa Etheridge, Ashanti, Natasha Bedingfield, Keyshia Cole, Ciara, Leona Lewis, LeAnn Rimes, and Carrie Underwood. Don’t miss out!

Sellers will no longer be able to offer money orders or checks as a form of payment after October, 2008.
eBay is going “Paperless” which means PayPal will be the leader in payment options. Another company will be in available for those not wanting to use PayPal. A company called: ProPay.
Sellers with merchant accounts may continue to use their accounts and local pick-up is up to the seller if they would like to accept a check or MO at time of pick-up. If the payment is made through eBay, it must be an approved electronic payment method that is integrated through the eBay system.
eBay is simply trying to provide a consistent and secure system for buyers by providing an easy to use check-out procedure. Paying for items on eBay is safe, fast and secure. When buyers leave the eBay platform to pay for items, they are more vulnerable to fraud.
When I purchase an item on eBay, I never wait for the seller to send me an invoice. I instantly pay for my item through PayPal. I purchase the item and then pay for the item. It is a fast and reliable system to do business this way. Next step is only to wait for my item to arrive and give the seller a five star rating!
When I am teaching eBay, I especially talk about the importance of a simplified selling system. With eBay going paperless, the selling and buying system will be the simplest for both.
Bottom line:
* Improved checkout.
* Fewer Unpaid Items.
* Greater protection against online fraud.
NOTE to Sellers: I suggest you start removing the check/money order options from your listings now.
NOTE to Buyers: I suggest you join PayPal ASAP. PayPal is free to join and is used worldwide.

With the holidays around the corner, eBay is making this “Bold Move” to continue with keeping eBay as the most competitive marketplace on the net.
Best part, this is NOT a promotion. It is not a temporary thing. eBay is allowing us to list items for the duration of 30 days and pay a listing fee of only 35 cents! WOW!
The price change will go into effect on September 16, 2008. This drastically reduced fee is for buy it now, fixed price listings. eBay motors is excluded from this offer.
35 cent insertion fee for 30 days: Any start price or item quantity. They are also offering reduced final value fees (closing fees) for some of the categories, including:

This will help make our up-front listing costs much lower, which means our profit margins will be much higher. Especially higher for those items listed in the categories with reduced final value fees! We will be gaining more exposure at a lower price!
This is exciting news to me as a long term eBay seller.

Last week several eBay sellers gathered together to support a very special friend in the eBay community: Terry Meade. Terry, also known as: “TootsieGirls” on eBay,is part of a story that eBay members have been following for years.
This is a real life drama story about a couple that have been embraced and cared for by eBay staff as well as registered users around the world.
I had the pleasure to have Mr. and Mrs. Meade as a guest on my internet radio show “Let’s Talk eBay.” You can tune in and listen to the complete story through your internet speakers any time. Hearing the story direct from this couple can not compare to the words I type. With that said, listen to the story while you browse the net. The last half of the segment includes a call from: GiftofLifeFamilyHouse.org
This loving couple: Terry and Mark Meade are now on a mission to share their story with the world encouraging people to “Donate Life.” To learn more, visit the website this couple is sponsoring: Donors1.org.
Several eBay members have joined together and launched charity auctions through the eBay Giving Works program. Proceeds from these auctions range from 10 to 100% pointing to: The Transplant Foundation Gift of Life Family House. The Transplant Foundation was formed to support Gift of Life Donor Program by conducting fund raising, community programming and educational services to promote donation and care for donor families and families of those awaiting transplant. Gift of Life Family House, a program of Transplant Foundation, will provide lodging and supportive services to family members of transplant patients seeking care at Philadelphia area hospitals.
I would like to take this time to encourage everyone to become an organ donor and
Terry and Mark Meade are loved in the eBay community
