  • You can also filter the Feedback results of users on other sites too.

    For example, eBid.co.uk has a similarly easy method.

    Simply click the Feedback rating beside any user's name and then choose from the options (shown in blue).

    I think this is a really useful tool for anyone who wishes to be careful in their online buying experience.

    It is also important to understand just why people received a less than positive feedback rating as sometimes it isn't actually the seller's fault. Being able to filter the Feedback results assists in this process, too.

    Can I post my ebay shop on here, I have lots of bargains??
  • I originally posted this on the local money savers boards, but thought it may be useful in here as well.

    Has anybody used www.localbargainfinder.co.uk ? It searches for items on eBay without postage based on your postcode - so mainly large or heavy items like furniture, toys and car parts.

    I bought a set of Black & Decker Hedgeclippers for £1.27!! which had been used no more than a few times, but I did give the seller £5 to help ease my conscience!

    Sorry but MSE is advert free so no links to your own auctions are allowed.

  • Just my two penny's worth:

    Some other misspelled search sites:

    http://www.missing-auctions.com
    http://www.missing-auctions.co.uk
    http://www.invisible-auctions.co.uk

    Also, another site that I found that finds UK auctions that are ending soon where the item price is less than a pound:

    http://www.belowaquid.co.uk

    I'm sure that there are some more to add but it's too early on a sunday to think clearly . . .
