    Default Pintrest?

    Has anyone noticed keeping pintrest boards going making any difference to sales?

    No.... As stuff sells (lol!) I pull off Pinterest but don't replace. After a while P started spamming my email a\c (18 whatever's x approx 15 in as many days....) So I unsubscribed. P has had it's time of fame\fashion methinks.

    Madelaine i am posting to FB, twitter, google +, tumblr and pinterest, and nothing is coming from it either on here or on eb, i am about to give up on all of them, I was only saying to mike over the last few days, i think I am wasting my time posting to these places, time when i could be listing or doing something constructive.

    That seems to confirm my experience - the way to sales is mega numbers of listings.

    Not really and I think this is the reason why :-

    £32.99
    Out of stock
    Rare Beswick Cairn Terrier - Tongue Out - Number 3082 - Deigned by Warren Platt

    Any older photos on there of listings that have been reposted are marked 'out of stock' because the listing number changes on eBid. We need the listing numbers to stay the same as Jan suggested in the thread below.

    People do re-pin some of my pottery photos but when you open a pin and see 'out of stock' written you are not going to follow through and visit the site to try and buy the item are you ?!

    You have to do your listings like cheaver does them to keep the same numbers on the bulk edit thing, but doing it that way you dont get on the new listing thing at the side.

    I don't use twitter, rarely pinterest etc but use facebook regularly and try to entice buyers to ebid but ive had very little success. Still being told its hard to navigate!

    Ive just done a google search for vintage deco plastic buttons and quite a few of my ebid listings are on the first page but i think most of them are old as ive not pinned much for several years.

    Ah...This is one thing I have been looking for! Actual active accounts and listings. I do see my number of views go up after posting something, but hasn't led to sales yet. However, I am in the US, I lack followers and probably need to focus on listing more as well (I've got maybe 5% of my actual inventory posted). Pinterest is way more fun though! I'd be glad to repin things if anyone needs it! I need better boards and more content so I hid most of them earlier today until I can get them updated. quimzicaldelights
