Selling your stuff on EBID. advice for new sellers

KatieShopstoomuch

Hello all! I'm going to give ebid a try just opened a seller account will list some items later this evening wonder if i'll sell any, time will tell lol

mira666

KatieShopstoomuch

That's my problem i will go on to sell then start searching for something to buy!

mira666

thats what i was going to suggest, helps boost your feedback as well which may or may not encourage sales too

Welcome, Katie, hope you do well on eBid. Just tell people where they can buy what you have to sell because there's still a problem with buyers finding eBid for some reason. If every seller brought 10 buyers with them, it would be great!

Well done on getting started with the sales, Mira

That depends on previous auction activity. I've bought from a couple of people with really, REALLY high scores but zero feedback from eBid, it's all been imported. I'm just jealous, really, as I've been on eBid for nearly 10 years and haven't a hope of ever building up feedback into the thousands because I have so little to sell and can hardly ever find what I'm looking for when I want to buy. Did get some fantastic bargains recently, though :j Spent less than £7 including P&P and got 2 new skirts for summer and a lovely fascinator for wearing to a wedding I'm attending soon. I couldn't believe the prices! :T I couldn't believe there were no other buyers to bid against me, either. Why aren't people finding the site and if they are, why aren't they snapping up these bargains?

Is anyone else haveing trouble getting into ebid? Been trying to sort a refund from discontinued seller and now cannot get into my account. Tried different computer but still the same.

eBid moved to new servers a week ago Monday, and if you're with Tiscali, they STILL haven't updated their DNS database so that you can access eBid.

I started using a US-based proxy site until Gazza recommended using

The help/Forum has changed URL if you can get in this may help.

Sorry, no can do regarding the help forum. I'll play with Newnets dns tonight but there really should not be any problem using theirs. Thanks.

peter_the_piper

changing to open dns solved it. Thanks.

My good deed for today
