Has Ebay Finally Shot Itself In the Foot?

[vicanddave]

hi there im new here i used to buy and sell on ebay and have over 300 feedback over the last 4yrs is there any way you can transfer your feedback to ebid ?,as i notice a lot of people trying to sell stuff on ebid with no feedback and goods worth a small fortune i for one wouldnt be tempted to spend a lot of my hard earned money with someone with no feedback i know a few people from ebay have come here thats why im asking about feedback as i think it is one of the main drawbacks with ebid. many thanks ebay user. traderstosellers

A way of kick starting your feedback is to buy some things on here, you could also mention previous online selling history provided it doesn't link directly back to ebay, as an example have a look at one of my listings to see how I dealt with the problem.

I have just started listing here and (for what it is worth) I have put my ebay ratings and username in my about me page.

I will confess to being or becoming an eBay refugee. I have joined this site and many others.

I try my best to look after buyers including returns and refunds on second hand items just because they have changed there minds. Added 30p to the stamp price for an invoice, Jiffy bag and been told im ripping people off on postage. Buyers not paying for 7 days then when they do the next day I get “where is my item”.

My last line of defence is now being taken away from me. what a joke.

I have no feedback on this site yet (ebay ID “phill-ntpcs”) but If I get 15 sales at apox £5 per item from ebid in 3 months I will be happy. Its about time ebay they had a run for there money. (go ebid)

that is the right way to look at ebid don`t expect hundreds of sales in your first months trading , advertise your items / shops etc. as much as you can , read the promoting threads learn how to get items showing up in google for more exposure

ebay has shot itself in the foot..i have been selling on it for 8 years now and have had enough..feedback is now for buyers only and fees are now to high and paypal are also having there cut..enough is enough and will now start trading on ebid....i think this site will explode with newbies and i do not blame them...do not fall into ebay faults and you will soon surpass ebay and a good job too....paul

Don't forget to email all you buyers and tell them to come and join us, and those you've bought from on ebay as well, if they want to continue to sell to you.

Hello, yes I'm another outcast from FeeBay. Obviously same sort of thing here on ebid - but need to learn the navigation. So, can any of you old hands point me to the tutorials? So I can get me old head around the system.
Thanks Toady [Woodentoad]

Count me as one more refugee from ebay. The 8.75% fvf has got me searching on several different sites for a good auction style selling venue. I am having to leave my 418 100% feedback. Hopefully I will be able to sell and build a new feedback performance here on ebid.
