More tape listed for Buddy points if you want to wait another 30 days!

31 ebid points for 1 roll of ebid tape, last time i will be able to bid on tape as ive only 5 points left!
Non for sale again I see

By Xmas i will be back to the brown packing tape.

That's a sad state of affairs purple, & one I guess, many others are unfortunately having to implement.

People have been asking ebid for years to sell the tape for money, it is a good way ebid could make money & help promote the site but it seems that they just don't care.

Yes Ray I agree 100%
Nobody (including yours truly) is asking for it free, in fact, all eBid related products with a small profit margin & at cost shipping, may well be a good little earner for the site! IMHO.
As evidence, I submit the current growing list of members who are trying for tape again via Buddy points! (& waiting 30 days for same)

Please vote everybody - you never know, we might just get a re-think by the powers that be!
Voting finishes at the end of this month.

I won 1 Roll - and to think, on the same day I'm making pierogi!

We always say, "I'm on a pierogi" (instead of on a roll!!!)

It's a Polish thing...

I thought it was a poll and not a Pole!

I do understand the frustration that is felt by many on this subject. However, I think that I do understand what eBid is doing...to obtain the tape we want we have to earn points...and how is that done? (Please do not tell me!) The onus is being placed upon us as sellers to do the necessary advertising to earn the points...

At the moment I am unlikely to obtain many points; i need to have a much larger set of listings ( and have far too much going on in my life to deal with that at the moment) or I need to post on the social networks. Having been with computers since 1960 (Yes! That long!) and with the internet from its beginning and on into the WWW, I am not going to launch myself into such unsafe territory - not until I have time to assess the possibilities for myself anyway. I select my friends as do they - I am sure you all do the same in real life!

Poll closing soon!
