Hi Dean, and welcome to ebid! We know exactly what you mean! I bet you will see lots of familiar faces/signatures here as most of us are feebay refugees too! Come September, with promises of more changes to feebay, I suspect we will be plenty more.
Check out the past forums for tips on starting your selling faster.
Tell all your old customers where you moved and you will get those first sales super fast.
If you have any questions, just ask, someone is always on line to help you out.
Thanks Border for your kind comments, I`m working on the shop right now... starting over is hard going but is a good time to sort out the clutter.
Hey Ken thanks for the welcome and the link, as soon as my shop is set up I will check out the links, before placing my ads, I`m adding clothing categories at the moment which is very time consuming.
Thanks Delta, I`m sure with the latest and as you say upcoming changes many more will be joining us here. I have given thousands of pounds to Feebay in fees and it really did annoy. I will be checking out all rules and costs and so on straight after I have set my store. One thing at a time Grasshopper lol
I`ll be back
Dean
well, I finally jumped in ebid this time with both feet first,still a member on the dark side, as I do need sales,but I have been informing all buyers over there about ebid.net, I include this in with there receipt of purchase,as any mention of this site or others is strictly forbidden. they are rolling out there new "buyer protection policy" and it is incredibly hostile to small sellers ,and according to what is being said on there forums,many are planning on jumping ship before the policy kicks in,I know at that time I will be forced to be more specific on what I list as to the high risk of selling,in any event! I ceratinly have work to do here,and I will be consitently adding items up for sale,though I havent had a sale,and very few lookers so far.
Hi Frollick,
Why is there such a huge difference between your starting bid and the buy it now price? There are few bidding wars on this site and I'd hate to see you only get .25 cents for a few of the items I looked at.
Just looked again and realized you have a reserve in place. As I said, no bidding wars here so that only leaves the 'buy it now' feature as a good choice.

Hello! I certainly do appreciate your input,as you know,I am new here actually,and I am trying to find my way,so do you feel I should drop the auction foramt,and just list buy it now? I do have a reserve,which of course is much lower than the buy it now price I do have on my listings, would appreciate your thoughts, and thanks for your time!
Hi and Welcome:
Because bidding wars are virtually non-existent here I started my auctions at the bottom dollar I was willing to take and the BIN at what I hope to get.
My reserve price is my opening bid and I have a note at the top of the page that states that. Sometimes eBid hiccups and won't let me post an auction without a reserve price so that is my way around it.
I really like the function that doesn't start the auction until the first bid, I don't know if I'm shooting myself in the foot with Google on that one. But I like the idea of it.
I have new listings! Check them out!
Everything I say can be fully substantiated by my own opinion.Fed up with paying to sell?
Hello! well it certainly is different, have to readjust,but I think I will like it this way,so I got it now! and am very appreciative for your time and wisdom, thank you!
forgot to add, I have been reading often on the forums,that always keep Google in mind when you do a listing,if I choose the option as you mentioned,start the auction at first bid,wouldn't I lose out on any google searches if my listing was not active?
