The levels move up through Silver, Gold, Platinum and Titanium, the highest level. Perks get better and better the more you sell on eBay! So, here are some of the benefits: Powersellers are trusted by buyers as genuine and trustworthy because their feedback and DSRs reflect that.

This is because eBay recognises their ability to generate higher sales which then results in higher fees and so more profits for ebay! eBay buyers like Powersellers because they have credibility. They know that they are not dealing with someone who will simply take their money and run, therefore they are likely to spend more on their purchases. Discounts on selling fees are given to Powersellers who continually perform well. So you will see your sales rise and your fees fall! In addition to offering an attractive inventory and therefore making multiple sales month after month, good marketing will also increase your sales and help you on your way to becoming a Powerseller.
