You will be aware that I have had some wrangles over the last couple of weeks. We have now decided to call it a day and walk away from Ebid

All our auctions have been removed and I will be closing...

What a great way to use Ebid to sell tickets.

Too far for me to travel - but hope it all goes well :cool:

The biggest thing is, here on Ebid, If you do not sell internationally, then it looks like you have nothing to sell. On other sites your items would still appear, here they don't

So yes, list...

Hi

You can use Safari I think, but there is not an app - yet!

There is an app being developed but we don't as yet know if that will just be for buying or buying and selling

Ebay have long been advocating free postage, and they give you a bump up the rankings if you do. I suppose this is in line with that policy. So we have been paying fees on postage for quite some time

Nice!

We also use prestashop, but because we have variations (called attributes there) and Ebid does not yet have variations I have to do it differently

We have prestashop plugins for Ebay,...

Try intuit pay - we use that. No plug ins for websites (yet) but the customer does not have to be be present. So I don't hijack the thread, PM me or details

I think this is "simply" Google having issues. I just tried searching for ebay and got no results at all

Our items are showing OK

Just a general thought if you have your own sites as well. I may have found a rather cheap work around - it will probably get blocked at some point

On google merchant i...

R.I.P. Mr Smith
:(

I think they are just a local company that use other larger companies

It says they use the APC network (http://www.apc-overnight.com/)

I second that. Variations is the way forward

Elsewhere we use it for quantities. It enables is to use free shipping on low value items.

I understand that this query is about the differences between the two systems - It may simply be due to the logic involved with whoever programmed the system

To me, there is absolutely no point in...

I think they are established with (their figures): 36.5 million members & € 59'066'370'612 processed transactions

Though of course I assume that is dwarved by PayPal

We are Merchant, and have received the email

The one thing we all forget is that businesses need to make money. Presumably they have done the maths and decided that they don;t make money out of...

There are brief details on one of my newsletter / blogs

I use Gimp for colour editing, using the colour levels settings to get a nice white background. http://www.gimp.org/

There are many patents that never come to fruition.

My guess would be that they are simply patenting any idea they come up with so that no one else can do it in future without paying them a shed...

You need to talk to Skrill support. They can look into the transaction and see if there are any issues. I don't think it is really an ebid issue at this point

Going from strength to strength as far as I can tell. They have their issues, but then every company does, but they are just fine for us.

COmpanies have to earn their money somehow. So they either charge you a higher transaction fee, or charge you to withdraw your money, or some other way. And it is really not your money - you are...

That is why you have a mobile version precisely because the standard site is unusable on the small screens. So what happens is, when you go to a site on your mobile phone, the site knows you are on a...

No it is not necessarily the same

A mobile version of the site a special view for people looking at the site on a mobile device but through their devices web browser. So on an iphone, if you use...

It does appear on ebay also. Perhaps not as obvious - but they are there. Our website gets regular its from ebay browsers

We took the plunge and went for Intuit Pay

It is brilliant (so far) - it can;t be linked to websites yet, but you can take payment over the phone, or using a phone App, or using a card reader. And...

Nobody use these?

Anyone use Intuit Pay or Braintree payment systems?

They seem good on the service. You seem to be able to take over the phone credit card orders without a merchant account. Some feedback from...

You are not entitled to sales. If you have items for sale that people want at the right price then you are only a very small step in the right direction

Much more importantly, and probably the one...

Are you offering to finance that (Tee hee)

I would give it a couple of days. Seller could be away.
