    Red face Store criticism welcomed! Sales are slow

    Hi, I've recently moved over my stock from Greedbay, and have got lazy over the years listing there. This is a whole new site for me and I'd like to get it right. If any of you can spare the time to have a look at my store/auctions and give some help and advice, I'd be grateful
    Many thanks
    Mike

    Hi,
    If I was you I would change your listing length from run till sold and on 1st bid to countdown auctions with 10 re-posts. At the moment all your listing will come after the countdown ones so they get less exposure.

    To get a signature link for the forums the following post will help.

    Any chance adding a store link as signature? I am lazy and it'll be so much quicker finding your auctions

    Don't I just know! I spend far too much on books, that's why I'm trying to sell some, I need funds to get a whole new load. I can't walk past a bookshop, something drags me in.

    Shipping is not available to United States for this item but yet you have above in notice box that you will ship abroad.

    By not clicking on any International countries when you set up the listings they will not show up for any country outside of the UK when one does a search.
    The only way someone could view them, like I did, was using the link you just provided.

    The problem is time and space, there are so many variations of UK mail, it would take up a lot of blurb to list them all, and I find many people are deterred by long lists of prices etc. I'll add a note and a link for a post quote. Thanks for letting me know, as a relative newby, I keep forgetting this is an international site!

    The postage option for worldwide can be as not known. Some people don't like it, but it gives the buyer a chance to see the listing and if interested they can ask you
