    I like to have the choice. If the run til sold option doesn't suit a seller then there are many other options. It's the fact that Ebid offers this level of choice that makes it appealing.

    there are pro's and con's for both sides of run til sold.... but the main con is those who list and forget about the site. the main pro is for those of us who have 1,000's of items listed, we would be forever relisting our items...

    so I think it's a case of you pay's your money you take's your choice

    point taken - however it is interesting to see how eBid members feel and their opinions. I was a member in another site such as this and found it much easier to use. I was just making a suggestion that in the end may have been a benefit to all - sometimes another view especially someone from outside who sees things differently can make a good change. so far though it seems the majority is in favour of it.

    ps. manners - i have plently of thank you.

    suggestions are always good

    some of us may seem a little abrupt but then again we have seen many people suggest things which would just make this site a copy of ebay , when this site is original it has features that make it original lets keep it original and as simple as possible

    good luck

    Default Are you guys really considering this?

    we are always fighting for freedom.. On eBid we are free to choose, i don't understand how can someone even think on guiving uot this freedom.

    if someone forgets that they are selling something... well that is to bad for the seller, not for the buyer... if a seller list an item it is the sellers responsability to sell or not sell, if he doesn't sell im pretty shore he will get bad feedback...

    It is the sellers' choice!
    If you don't like it, you are not obliged to use it, are you?

    I came here to get away from the dictatorial attitude on feebay - it seems that some people just want more of the same, but in a different place!

    it`s a case of people come from wepay and because everything is different they want certain things the same but if you keep adding bits you end up with a twin of wepay and then theres no originality

    this site is simple to use
    once you have done a few auctions

    go into your my ebid and set your defaults for auctions then thats one
    thing you will not have to do when you start listing

    upload your pictures and name them before starting to do your auctions
    this will save you time later as they are searchable

    keep the site simple and original

    Wink Run until sold

    I am also a Newbie,,,from Efee. I love it here and the items I sell run continuously so it is a plus feature for me. That is the main feature that brought me here. It saves me a lot of time and work. I check several times a day....Hey, is anyone selling...???How long does it take. Lots of views, but no takers. Just wondering.

    I use this option when selling FP multiple items in featured and it has proven a success.
    But under normal gallery listing they remain at the end of the pile, but will still come up in item searches.
    I dont use auction only FP but i dont want they auction option to be junked.
