It will disappear just as fast as it came there :)
I've never had any success with froogle. They putted in my store a few days and dropped it a few days later..

As a buyer froogle is actually pretty good. It helped me get some stuff for about half off some of the better known places like amazon.com .

Trial and error, I have froogle running for several sites and it is very good with rankings on the google search above the google results!

Yes but they remove your products after 2-3 weeks

You have to resubmit your xml file every month or else they remove it. They tell you that up-front.

I have had my products on Froogle steady for over a year.
You have to reload your feed once a month or you will
be dropped, did you forget to read the instructions?:D

i have over 70 of my products on froogle and not one sale came from them. It's been about a month also. Had no success with froogle and now i'm moving on to yahoo shopping even though i have to pay per click.

Yes, I've had some very happy customers tell me they can't believe I got them to #1 so quickly. ;)

I think froogle is cool and fun. But probably they will index you and leave you there later on.:D

Actually, after having my products on Froogle for 18 months
I forgot to refresh a couple of months ago and my products
disappeared completely. So now we have a procedure to
renew every Friday.

I have had my products listed on Froogle since my site's inception, with great results. I had previous experience with using Froogle for a company I used to work for. I have only seen great results, and have found that many shoppers are now using Froogle to find my products - and they are coming to my site to purchase. You have to upload your xml often, or it will be deleted from the index. I am constantly adding products, making price changes, etc., so I update my feed at least once or twice a week. I would say Froogle can be an asset to anyone, who sells online. Though the key to Froogle success can be that you must have a product that users are looking for. I find that many of my visitors, who used Froogle to find my site, are looking for a product BY NAME; not just a general product search.
Also, as a user, I always comparison shop with Froogle.

I 100% agree, if you're selling something a customer is looking for, in particular branded goods froogle works very well.
Another good thing, as TDC said about the google search results. If you're selling at a competitive price, your products have a better chance of being listed above the main google results. And in my case greatly improved my sales after setting up froogle :D

You can try and sell domains in froogle but it is not a great outlet for that. I would suggest GD’s tdnam.com and other after market sites where the buyers are.

I think Froogle is a good way to get your name known, and every customer you get to find your store, could be a potential paying customer either now or in the future (if they bookmark it for later because they liked what they saw)- we have been using it for only a week and had a couple of sales from it, but we are in a niche market (every sale counts though!!) so don't expect much from t other than hopefully letting people know we are here :D
