  • Well done Wigglebeena :j

    I have sold only one item in 12 months :o but I still have plenty of listings on there and have signed up for their lifetime membership. I have more to list and hopefully things will pick up on there

    I just got sniped on eBid!!!! :eek: :mad: :o
    I can't believe it - first time ever! That'll teach me for becoming complacent when bidding for my bargains on there! Hmph!

    Yes there are more 'bidding wars' now. I've been outbid on a few occasions.
    There is no such word as "bidded". I bid, you bid, they bid, Ebid ;)

    I've read the whole thread, and just need confirmation on one thing:

    If I pay for Lifetime, I'll still have to pay for a gallery picture (the thumbnail that comes up in search listing), yes?
    :)

    NO

    I have lifetime seller+ membership and it doesn't cost anything to include a gallery image in listings. The only cost involved is a 2% commission charged once the item sells. :)

    I'm interested in joining eBid and wanted to try a 30 day membership but my First Direct card isn't accepted.
    Despite the icon displayed on the page I keep getting the message that Maestro International isn't accepted?
    I don't really want to commit to lifetime membership which can be paid through Paypal so what do I do? Anyone, please?:confused:
