    Cool Too Many Buddy Points!

    I have received Buddy Points for feedback as a buyer for a Buy Now item on a multi item listing. I have previously bought from the same auction. Instead of being credited with Buddy Points based on my latest purchase I have been given Buddy Points equating to my current purchase plus all my previous purchases. Very nice but I guess it’s a bug that needs fixing.

    Feedback is calculated as one feedback per payment relating to the same auction ID.
    For example an auction with 3 Buynows:
    If bought 3 and paid with 3 seperate payments = 3 feedbacks.
    If bought 3 and paid with 1 payment = 1 feedback.

    Nancy, I am still wondering about my buddy points too.
    I have enticed buyers from t'other site to come over and buy my stuff here on eBid.
    My daughters bridesmaid dresses were advertised individually on fleabay, I didn't have a buy now price, and got so many requests as to what the total cost would be for all three dresses. I couldn't alter the price for three, so I removed them for sale from fleabay.
    I informed the would be buyers that the dresses were listed elsewhere - look on google.
    My buddy link was clearly stated - the first buyer jumped in, signed up and purchased all three dresses within a few minutes.
    I get a lot of newbie buyers who join eBid minutes before they purchse their goods:
    Here are a few examples..... haven't included all as it may be boring!

    eBid issue Buddy Points for feedback, purchases etc - You can use them to purchase items that eBid put up for auction.

    This is an eBid incentive for us members.

    My buddy point links don't seem to work any more on eBid although they used to at one time. I get points for positive feedback and buying etc but not for people joining via my links on eBid. The eBid system seems to change the HTML in my links so they don't work any more when people join. The only time I get points for people joining is from my buddy links that are advertised outside of eBid. An extra amp ; seems to be added to my HTML on the eBid system which seems to make my links on my listings invalid.

    "In total you have earned 601.631 Buddy Points."

    If my referral link works then so does yours. When you send it to someone, double click it and make sure it goes to the registration page.
