Thread: New Buyers Are Finding eBid

  1. #1

    Default New Buyers Are Finding eBid

    I just made another sale, and noticed something when I brought up my panel "Auctions I've Sold." I leave them up until I get our records updated. Of the 19 sales still there, all except one were to BRAND NEW eBid members!

    It seems eBid's strategies are working, at least for sellers of collectibles like me and my daughter (we both list in our stores). People ARE finding our items. And buying.

    eBid is promoting / sharing a lot of listings on Google +. I've noticed that some of the listings for stamps that I've been hitting the + 1 on are your stamp listings.

    I've made 2 sales since Sunday, both new members to eBid and one of them was from France.

    9 of my sales this month have been to newbies.
    Madelaine

    4 shops for Cats Protection & Prospect Hospice
    My Postcard Shop
    BK Stamps for Philatelic listings
    & Yarnalong for craft patterns
    and
    Lotzabitz -anything that doesn't belong in one of the other shops.

    Two more sales . . . both to new members who paid immediately.

    There were two other sales to a new member . . . eBid blocked them. When I looked at the emails I saw why, obviously a teenager playing games (silly street address, non-existant city, etc.) so I'm glad to see support is being vigilant. It does show, however, that people are finding the site!

    My last 5 buyers have been newbies. When I sell on the other side I include a flyer directing them here where they can save money on their next order (I obviously sell cheaper here than on the bay)

    With the exception of something I sold today, my last 3 buyers have been newbies

    I am waiting on some business cards to be delivered, going to include them in my sales from 'other places' too.. :-)

    I have attached a preview, you might not be able to make it out but on the left I have listed the addresses of my eBid stores and on the right uploaded a little eBid logo, let me know what you think..

    Cheers

    ... and hopefully more new eBidders to arrive soon . Ebay are increasing their charges AGAIN next month - only 20 free listings a month, then 35p every time. Not forgetting their 10% closing fee including postage cost. Lots of complaints on their message boards!
    THE BOOKING OFFICE - just the ticket!
