    Well done eBid!!!

    I have been with ebid for years and i really do not mean to be negative but how many of these half a million auctions actually turn into sales ? I really did think by now my sales would be at least half that of other sites.

    morning all, here am afraid its chilly & have put the heater on as am not going to freeze we have been spoilt by the few warm days we had, We are going to a local wedding on Saturday & am at the stage of what do I wear had it sorted when though was going to be a nice weather. Why is it much easier for men.

    Hope to get up todate with relists & will try to do some listing have some ready to do.

    As was said earlier one feels better when sun around so where is it.

    Although a bit nippy, the sun has broken through - and I have leg cramps for the first time in ages. Kept me awake a lot last night. So back on the Co-codamol and Naproxen............

    That's an awful lot of potatoes you have had to peel this year already Private Mcc2 !
    (Hopes she doesn't notice the 50 I have lost since 1st January )

    Madeulook we now have 3,469,000 listings on eBid as we have grown since this thread started in 2008.
    I see you are protecting your precious listings from those pesky buyers by keeping them at the bottom of the eBid lists using 'run until sold' rather than using ten auto reposts . The eBid army always endeavours to protect the listing numbers here so whatever you do don't go plugging your auctions in the plug thread or advertising on social media. Also putting the word 'Exempt' in the bar code box, if the item doesn't have a code, is fatal as it might get your listings onto Google shopping which might result in having one of those dreadful things called a 'sale' (please excuse the swear word !!!)
    Oh and not opening your five free shops with seller plus is brilliant as you wouldn't want to draw attention to yourself now would you ?!

    Had a good meal out with the cadet and fiance last night. I think I need to tackle some of the jungle though to work off a few calories !
