    Hi a warm welcome to eBid CMDB.
    Can't really remember as 2005 was a long time ago !
    Have only been back here selling full time for over a year though so most of my feedback is from the last year.

    Craft items and jewellery seem to do quite well here from what I've seen.

    You need to do some work on promoting to get yourself going here as it's a smaller site than greedbay. Start with getting a signature link on to your items. This thread will help you.

    Then go and have a nose at the promote ebid and your ebid store forum for some good ideas.

    Good luck with the sales

    I had my first sale 4 weeks, 6 days, 22 hours, 27 minutes and 52 seconds after joining. Sorry, can't tell you exactly how long it took to make my first sale because I didn't list for the first few days while I was learning as much as possible about the site.

    Welcome to eBid. When you don't have feedback and are rather new, it can take a few weeks to get sales - you can import feedback if you think that might help you? - and just about everything sells here. The site is growing daily, as other sites close or become to restrictive.
    There is a place on these forums to "pimp" your items - try putting up a thread there as well (but just once every 24 hours please).
    Best of luck.

    Yes, just take a look at your feedback via My eBid and you will see an import feedback tab. This uses Repatoo.
