hi guys i have just advertised some football boots on ebay. i started them at a low price and have had no bidders. i really want to get rid of them so i dont mind how much they go for but of course the more the merrier!!! I was wondering how you could get people to go and look at them more. How can i promote them more without paying? is there any sites where you can put a link to the item to show other people.

PLEASE HELP ME!!

THANKS SO MUCH

    Unfortunately there aren't any sites that I know that allow you to advertise your ebay items, most sites consider it to be spam.

    Don't panic though as many items never get a bid to the last few hours.

    Imagine what this place would be like if links to auctions were allowed.
