Sorry to hear about your aunt. As Madelaine said, some things really are more important.
To help ensure your purchase arrives in time for Christmas, ANY item purchased from my stores between now and 20 December now attracts free upgrade to first class postage, at no extra cost to buyer....
That's a difficult one. I can only answer through gut feeling. For me, the person who has paid for the item in good faith should have their transaction honoured. With regard to the collection, as...
10% off all items until 6pm Sunday!
Follow links below! All prices in store have 10 % discount on previous price applied, until 6pm Sunday 8 November!
Currently adding more listings across my two stores:
My Rame Retro store has an eclectic mix including cufflinks, die cast models, ceramics, badges, books, postcards, breweriana, kitchenalia, metal...
On further examination of the books, I can't find any ISBN numbers in them. They are children's books around 50 years old. I guess in the absence of an ISBN number, they can safely be listed as...
I wonder if one of the seasoned book sellers may be able to offer some advice?
I have a collection of vintage books from a series of volumes that I wanted to sell as one lot. Normally, when I sell...
I also weigh the item and packaging and on the odd occasion I have sold to an international buyer, the postage was spot on. I always quote the cheaper Royal Mail standard international charge, which...
As you are willing to sell internationally and have obviously been successful in doing so, is there any reason you are not including international shipping charges in your listings?
Available in my ebid Rame Retro store:
Pre owned hardback biographies, chronicling the lives of some of the 20th century's greatest icons:
Judy, with Love: Judy Garland by Lorna Smith (1975)...
I found you too. Google shopping can be a bit erratic sometimes. Most of my stuff gets uploaded fine, the odd one can sometimes go astray. Closing a listing and relisting it sometimes sorts it out.
The latest editions to my Desk Drawer store:
Desirable Parker 61 Insignia, early 1970's, 12 carat rolled gold. Serviced and tested, in Parker presentation case.
Parker Slimfold in blue, 1960's....
I suppose in the meantime, you could add a notice to your auction listings, requesting that bidders on more than one of your auctions wait for their last auction to end and that a combined postage...
Sounds like a good idea to me, too.
I currently have a 14 day return policy. Should I be altering this to reflect the new UK legislation? My gut feeling tells me I should? Has anyone else?
Pinterest is like Facebook without the angst, or the weirdos. I'm sure there are weirdos on there, but it is a lot harder to bear your soul on Pinterest.
You just pin pictures, items, blogs,...
The nutshell answer is that you have to find ways of driving traffic here. I recently made the decision to stop selling on TOS. In order to do that,a completely different mindset was required. I am...
I always leave the brand box blank on my vintage items and just mark them as "Exempt". They usually always get uploaded successfully to Google Shopping. I say usually as the odd one seems to go...
Many new items across my Rame Retro and Desk Drawer stores, including this lovely vintage Fry's chocolate tin, showing an aerial picture of the Fry's chocolate factory, at Somerdale, Bristol. I...
I've never used it either, so don't feel I can contribute. However, the result of the poll (presumably by those who have used it) may influence whether or not I make any use of it in future.
It is probably a good idea to start building up your home grown eBid feedback, this can be kick started by making a purchase or two.
Patience and hard work is the key with eBid, particularly when you are starting out. Kreative is absolutely right: the first sale is all important. I did quite well here when I joined last year...
Just added to my Desk Drawer store, this is an above average example of the popular Slimfold fountain pen, serviced and in good working order.
Other vintage and modern Parker pens (and other...
Come back to Cornwall, Becky, it's lovely!
I did things the other way round. I'm from Bristol originally, but have lived here in south east Cornwall for some years now. I wouldn't go back to...
I have autoreposts for extra photos as well. If you go to "my fees and invoices" in My eBid, and click on the invoice in question, it should tell you for which posts the charges apply to.
Apparently, I am a Poodle!
These are valid points. I am merely scratching around for a USP that could be attributed to eBid. eBid IS different to Feebay, but how do you sum it up in a sentence (or two)?
That is SUCH a good question. Discovering the answer would be like alchemy! I experience the same on my own items, but I often get sales eventually. I suspect it is a confidence thing on the part of...
I have been adding new stock across my two eBid stores over the last couple of days. Pride of place goes to these handsome lacquered brass Edwardian field glasses (see attached photos).
Also, more...
Off to hunt down my password, just in case!
