Just hope they all come back to bid.

Hmmm glad to hear it in the days i used to use feebay i always found tweeting my listings worked well. Once I get my membership sorted and store I will have to follow you. As any advertising is good especially if you do alink to join ebid as hopefully that will mean more customers for all of us

Not sure how this all works ~ am a facebook numpty!

I remember reading something on eBid forums when I first started selling here so signed up to facebook. Managed to upload some of my eBid photo and a link to my store but that is as far as I have got apart from accepting some friends requests.

Do you need to have a special page to advertis your eBid stock?

Hasn't a clue what she doing really....

hi you have to pay for facebook adverts if the guy is talking about the proper adverts that run down the side of everyones profiles or you can just join various groups on facebook and post your ads on those

At the bottom of each eBid auction page is a Twitter and facebook share button. I just click on those and the auction details and link are posted on my profiles. Does not cost anything.

Do a search for ebid on facebook there are a couple of groups that have been advertised on here and they have asked that you put your store on there.

If you want to build friends then look for pimping groups for the games and apps on facebook. But be prepared that some of them will remove you if you promote things they are not interested in. So try to keep your promotions relevant or spaced out so they don't just get ignored. Sunglasses comes to mind there seemed to be a flood of sunglasses sellers doing the same thing, even joining several of the games to prevent themselves getting kicked.

i have been looking at facebook for a while but the main issue I have found with it, is trying to work out who the people are you have as friends. They do show some bit of their personality due to the apps they select or the groups they join, and some with the dribble they talk. But ignore most of the photographs and job descriptions, as if they are right then I have a hell of a lot of models that seem to have little to do throughout the day but play on Mafia wars and Farmville or one of the other games on there. Then they want to sell you sunglasses to keep them between jobs.

If any one has found a better way to grow your friends list with people that would be interested in buying items on ebid then I think most of us would like to know?

I haven't even managed to work out what it's all about yet.

Still trying to navigate myself aound and can't really see much there :-)

fofl, I have been thinking the same thing but surely there must be more to what I am seeing for so many people to join and take part ????
