gazza WHY DO'NT EBID ADVERTISE ?

[heatemyfather]

notice also that ebay are now below 14,000,000 auctions,,I don't think thats happened for a very long time.

I reckon that will bottom out soon as the casual sellers and disgruntled power sellers leave. Only the hard-core favoured power sellers and a hand full of hobby sellers will remain.

Lets see what happens in October : )

What will happen is that sales rates will increase back up to what they were going into the summer, and then some.

The only problem for me is how do I get all of my thousands of items listed in time to take advantage?

" The Truth about the Internet ".
A very interesting program indeed, loved it, however I was a bit miffed when it came to companies advertising their nakes a's etc then b's and onto E's and e...Bay was mentioned as well as other eeeee's- I am a little hard of hearing but I strained, and there was a void : eBid didnt score a buddy point.
My question is why does'nt eBid advertise on prime time T.V.
I'm talking to eBay users who look a bit blank when I mention eBid.... steady do'nt be personal...
P.S. I mentioned in an earlier thread that I would like two eBid car stickers !

eBid made this announcement on the 29th August:

Its been a while since I posted here. Thought I'd just check in quickly with an update. I will add a longer post in the next couple of days. I have to pull myself off my seat and go to my friends wedding in about half an hour. It'll be strange to see daylight again!

Our official auction count is now at 1,375,057 compared to 1,360,427 of another site. Congratulations and thanks to everyone for lifting us to this level.

We have doubled our daily ad spend with Google over the past week and plan to continue at this level so keep your eyes peeled for our text and banner ads in UK, US, Canada, Ireland and Australia.

Also we will be testing the water with our first radio ads and some billboard advertising in the UK in the next couple of months also.

We have also just signed an ongoing contract with a US PR agecncy to help boost growth in the States.

Once again, mine and Mark's heartfelt thanks goes to everyone who has stuck by us so far.
