I've many old computers stored away which I have been meaning to list on here for sale but never seem to get round to it. Apricot 20Mb, Apricot Xen-i, IBM 286 and 386s, a pro-build machine with Win...

Many parents do not understand that a dog is an animal and like every other animal a dog survives through its instincts. However well a dog is trained, when presented with a situation in which it is...

Problem is solved - apparently my browser Firefox 25 is not compatible with eBid site. Shame, as I prefere Firefox to Internet Explorer, but my IE8 displays the website pages correctly.

Am posting here as I cannot navigate to post anywhere else! My eBid appears right up the creek - displays only in text mode, so where is the html view of pages? I have made no changes to my settings...

Thankyou Moonwitch and Suesjools for your replies.
I remember now a news article from Gazza announcing the new Make An Offer feature - obviously it hadn't sunk in!
(When you are getting older, it...

What does 'MaO' stand for, as shown in some of my recent listings as 'Yes' ?

When I click on one (any one) of my listings I get an error message, for example: "Not Found The requested URL /for-sale/vintage-pencil-shaped-wooden-pencil-case-with-ball-cap-9644860.htm was not...

Personally, I am not too bothered whether buyers leave me feedback or not - for whatever reason - though if they do leave feedback at least I am aware that the item had arrived safely (or not). As a...

Depends - if I'm sober, then headfirst (like most things I do), but if perhaps slightly inebriated, then feet first!

I have a Dremel. Excellent for modelling. Unfortunately mine got rather hot in prolonged use and the body casing, being plastic, has warped. It still works but not worth selling as it could fail...

An earlier article in Channel Insider referred to the dwindling fortunes of a particularly notable auction house. The comment in the article was very noteworthy at the time, but I wonder has...

Would love to - if I had some.
Think fertiliser would be more appropriate than shampoo! :(

The electrically-live metal bell push on my door bell does it for me - no need for signs!

When I receive election campaign leaflets in the post, I put them straight into 'recycling'. If any election hopeful candidate calls, I send them away with a MYOB message.
I will most certainly...

None of this is being done for the benefit of the banks' customers, it is designed to reduce the banks' costs and thus enhance their profit. To follow, will be the abolition of 'free' bank accounts...

And only yesterday I put the snow shovel back into store till 'next' winter!

Of course they do NOT know what will be the result of their experiment. There has been some talk of creation of a Black Hole. Seems to me that to risk the latter is to risk the very existence of all...

What's in a Name? - quite a lot really. It needs to be meaningful, different and open to further development through advertising and merchandising.

A suggestion: 'GROW HADDON'

Firstly 'Grow'...

Just be humble, Red, that you've joined the ranks of the famous.

Couldn't help myself (curiosity) from looking at his auction website ... seems there is land for rent, motor bikes for sale - and the 'seller'? - the site owner, of course. Hmmm!

Not surprised a that ... anyway I decided to 'reply' to the Q&A with an appropriate comment that I will not repeat here.

Here's one of those who seeks to undermine eBids attempts to provide a good and fair auction market place (a 'question' I just received) ...

Is this Gazza's domain? ...
Recently sold an item, and buyer selected PayPal as payment method. She paid the total amount then indicated in her PayPal account screen, not realising that the postage...

All those posting above should be grateful they have some hair to wash! At least I save on the cost of shampoo!

Kimbo, I am not suggesting eBid Customer Support CAN stop any bank from charging for International Transactions - it is obvious that they cannot. However, by addressing the issue to Customer Support,...

Noticed some members having problems 'seeing' pictures on the OP's listings - and see a box with a red cross in it instead. This may be a problem with those members' Internet Explorer settings. Go to...

This thread is very interesting, and it would seem that only members resident in the USA (and possibly other countries outside the UK) are experiencing this problem.
Ever since joining eBid some...

I think the last two posts missed the point (no pun intended) - we are not talking about banning knives per se, but about unrestricted sales of such items over the internet (especially on auction...

And, sure as (Easter) eggs they will. Their new policy of free listing for private sellers (a stab at the [eBid] competition) is not worth the paper it's written on, as it only applies to items up to...

Yes, it is all rather sad that such action (as banning knives/blades fro sale on eBid) has become necesssary. However, it is the safety of our children, and other members of the public, that needs to...
