Welcome to New Members

[MudBugSports]

Checking in....New to eBid, came over from that site that takes all of your money and leaves you with nothing. I really like the look of this site here and plan to make it my permanent home. I specialize in sports cards and memorabilia and am really looking to pump the market up here with my listings. I've taken a few days to look over the site and I must say I find it very user friendly........oh, and I do like these forums!

I just registered and I'm going to give ebid a try. Well over 2200 feedback points on the "other" auction site and I'm willing to throw them all in the trash for a replacement auction site. Wish me luck. Bill N.

Hi to all the new refugees from Greedbay, welcome to eBid, OK to help you get started add a signature link to your posts so us nosey lot have an easy link to your items whilst reading the forums, read this thread http://helpdesk.ebid.net/showthread.php?t=100959 then fill in some info on Your About Me Page so people know about you as a seller. Perhaps buy a few things to kickstart your feedback over here, always looks better than a zero, ( I have some nice cheap prints ) have a look at my listings to see how I dealt with the zero feedback problem when I started.

Then email all YOUR (not Greedbay's they are a venue, they keep telling us) customers, and tell them where you are, give them a link to your listings. Grab the records while you can and from paypal records as well. That should keep you busy for a bit, and shout if you need a hand. Additional body parts incur a small fee Oh and finally read the forums there is a lot of useful information on here.

Thanks for the info. I'm going to check out the site you mentioned. I put up a few auctions today but will set up a store and get into it much more as soon as we get one of our rentals up and going again. Thanks and take care. Bill N.

I am a newbie also and would like to know what catagory would be good for old kitchen and dairy items. I have sold for a few years on that other site and like many others feel it is time to move. I would appreciate any suggestions as to an appropiate catagory for these items.

Personally, I would say Kitchenalia would be the best place.
