Use the 81 available characters to get appropriate keywords in your title.
Offer International shipping.
Make sure you use appropriate keywords.
Price your goods to be competitive with eBay and Amazon.

Add brand and barcode number to get the upload to Google Shopping, get an exemption if needed.

Have fun! Take time to get to know how it works on here & it will pay off in the longer term. Good Luck!

Perhaps a good old fashioned whip might work?

I have now uploaded a few listings, Now I have got in to using the site I am totally convinced that this site is 100% better in every way than eBay. It is easier, quicker and what I really do like is that I have control over what I sell and the way I sell and I can even put a P&P that suites me. If I have given anyone the wrong impression or said anything negative about eBid, then I apologise and take it all back. Yesterday I made my first sale on eBid and was fascinated by the fee on eBid (04pence). Now I know it was only a £1.99p sale, but on eBay that would have cost me 60p at least for the same listing. The important thing about that is it makes it affordable to sell an item at that price. I just need to figure out a way to convince buyers to move over. I think I know the trouble that could be causing this and that is sellers on eBid (myself included) also have the same items listed on eBay because of the selling power. We all know the answer to change that, but doing it is another thing. Now I am looking at suggestions of how to get buyers to move. I know about emails and leaflets and all the rest, but it us sellers, how do we change. It's there for the taking. I am working on an idea but may need help from other sellers, and I don't know if it will make a difference, but all I can lose is time.

Welcome to ebid

Do you want us to buy from you on ebid or via your online store that you are advertising here and on your About Me page ?

My go ;-) been selling mostly Postcards on here since January this year - my about page says all :-) but needless to say, it is a lot better than those OTHER places so far :-) now spending quality time on the forums - finding my feet so to speak.

And - the SUN is actually shining today in what is now, truthfully, sunny Ipswich!
