Thank you!

This has been asked for before but, in truth, most of them will be people who want to sell the same thing ;)
That won't happen since they can't even fix the issues/negatives already going on
I think they have given up and are happy with the profits they are getting
Doubt there will be much in the way of profits if sales are hard to come by, think they have fingers in more lucrative pies to bother with ebid, they seem to ignore the comments on the forums just come into advise what they have been doing now and again.Quote:

I have been receiving statements regularly so it might be worth checking with HotmailQuote:

They would just have to update shipping prices, taxes and such, but with improvements to the site, nothing else.
I will say on the USA side, I have been watching the home page and seeing a more items being sold and different sellers. 2 Years ago, sold items normally were stamps, artist cards, and a few miscellaneous items. Now there is such a variation of items being sold and more sellers.
There is even a seller that only has "Pick Ups Only". It's a thrift shop that they post a sign in their shop that certain items are on eBid auction and it's pick up only. They have really done great in a short time.
Come on eBid. Just do a massive upgrade and then sit back and let the sellers do their thing. :D :D
Well the UK has poshmark and whatnot coming soon, Obviously *bay made the appropriate changes to fees to counter this EG raise them :)
I feel its a too little to late point now
I've wondered about that as well. I use Yahoo mail, I get my statements OK but when I check my Spam folder there's usually one or two "Listing Ended" messages from ebid. I don't use ad-blockers, not sure why it happens but some messages from my dentist end up in Spam as well???Quote:

I've also wondered about Support / Management and how they ignore Suggestions, reports of Glitches and most everything else on the boards.
Yet, when I had a problem with a sale recently (a buyer said they couldn't pay as ebid "Didn't like their email address") and asked Support to look into it, they answered in a couple of hours to say everything was OK and the sale should complete "now".
But when I asked for help to get my Fees' DD restarted -- silence.
The weird negative numbers on the Home Page seems to have been fixed, without any explanation.
My request for some glass sub-cats. to be shown to the public on the HP, completely ignored.
The last particularly rankles, I've spent a few years paying for Platinum Listings, building one sub-cat. up from 20ish listings to nearly 300. (Plus another 100 listings that I've sold.) I don't expect ebid to mount an advertising campaign, but when the home page shows Date Lined Ceramics but not Date Lined Glass to the public, I feel short-changed.
Also having just mentioned "Platinum Listings" reminds me of the new-ish Account Conventions that left everyone who commented, + at least one would be seller from the US, confused. No explanation, no clarification, just the now usual silence.
The account changes was one of the weirdest changes ever
What I don't get is we make suggestions not to have a laugh but to help the site succeed
I don't now anymore
It's about time they changed the front page also, at the bottom of the page where it gives number of listing etc the comments by sellers is way out of date as most of them are no longer selling here, still showing comment from Annie so anyone that should click on them will find they are no longer selling here, but this was ignored previously when it was brought up.😖😤😤😤😖Quote:
