Sure enough there are a few low or no cost changes that some of us believe would push a few more sales over on ebid.....my favourite bit of Ebid promoting is the line "free to list on Ebid"....well....yes this is true, but list is about all that you will do, you will most likely see your listings remain unsold.
This will add to the disappointment that a previous poster refers to and of course will not leave any new member with a genuine impression relating to how the site can really perform.
Personally....i feel that the free listing option is "poor value" for all concerned , for both new seller and Ebid and it does neither any favours. As usual i am going to carry on telling all who will listen what a great deal the "platinum" option is in terms of visibility and likelihood of a sale.
This is the way to try Ebid out and i'm sure that for any private seller who has a house full of items to move or a business seller looking to test the waters then this will leave them with a positive impression of Ebids true capabilities.
Well…in my own experience only one way of ‘’direct revenue’’ can solve all problems once for all…
oh well in that case....i have used the Ebay forums where i have suggested that the disgruntled can find a new online selling home with another site that begins with the letter E
I have included flyers in all of my Ebay packages for some while now..
I also describe the many benefits of using Ebid to online buyers and sellers, i do of course make clear the many pitfalls that may also be encountered when listing here, so as to minimise any potential long term disappointment..

Now that spring is here and the car boot sales have started up again i visit 2 huge sales every weekend.I have printed up 500 A4 flyers,each cut into 4 so i have 2000 flyers.Total cost £2.50 for paper and about £3 of ink
I will be putting these flyers under the wipers on all the cars in the car-park so should be able to give away approx 1,000 every weekend
I am hoping that as all of the visitors to the boot sales are after a bargain,that the Ebid flyer should be of interest to them.As well as the general buyers there are also a lot of dealers there buying items to sell on so again the flyer should appeal to them as a possible alternative place to sell their items
Fingers crossed that this may bring in a few more buyers/sellers for not much cost or time.I'm sure that there are quite a few car booters on here and if a few of them did the same at their local boot sales with the flyers im sure it would be worth the effort...
As far as i can see ebid are not interested in promoting there site but making money .
