  • I've just upgraded from Gold to lifetime seller + for £5 and I get a free T shirt.

    Does anyone know if you can put multiple photos in your listing (ones you host yourself) for free?

    Cheers.

    yes you can if you include them in your listing html. :)
    There is no such word as "bidded". I bid, you bid, they bid, Ebid ;)

    Just spotted this on the ebid homepage:

    48 Hour Offer : Seller+ Lifetime 50% off. £99.99 down to £49.99. No More Auction Fees for Life.
    Go To My Subscriptions within My eBid. Don't forget all previous subsciption payments are deducted from this amount

    The lifetime offer has been extended to the end of February.
    There has been a big surge in new members since the ebay 'strike' started and I am having my best sales month ever- lots of new first time buyers, lots of new international buyers too. :T

    A quick question as I've looked and can't find it..is there a way I can easily see the pages of completed auctions?

    The categories I sell in have just pages and pages of items with no bids and before I list much more I would be interested to get some feel for the stuff that actually sells.

    Soo, once you've clicked 'search' and got the results, there's a 'refine your search' bit on the right of the page. Tick the 'search closed?' box and it'll bring up completed auctions.

    Hi Val

    V. useful thread - thanks

    Althpugh gold membership isn't available for new members, why not summarise it on page 1 for those who have gold membership? I'm still very green about Ebid and need all the help anyone can give. :o

    I couldn't see that for looking, thank you.

    Might be a bit confusing to include 'gold' as it isn't available to new users.

    'Gold' membership had a lifetime value of £45.00 (It's what i first signed up under) So from what I understand and what some users have said, if you DO have gold membership, upgrading to seller+ lifetime whilst this offer is running will cost you £49.99 (offer price) LESS the value of your gold membership, so you can upgrade to seller+ lifetime for £5.00 :rotfl:

    Just to be sure, when you go to upgrade in your 'my subscriptions' area on ebid, it will tell you what the cost of upgrading for your account is
