selling bonuses

[tonymaclennan]

recently i have needed about 5 different things like cables, laptop batterys and tried my best to buy from eBid but had to turn to eBay as ebid was empty. We def need more sellers.
I think eBid should offer bonuses to power sellers, like if you sell more thn say 20 items/week then you get discount on the fees.

how about "if you list more than.."

It would have to be more than 20!

Yes i agree it would have to be more than 20.

how about "if you list more than.."

If you have it like this then people would start bulk listign the same item. If they sell mroe than then they may stick a variety of goods on.

[mfkirke]

bulk listing the same item is not allowed - if anyone reports it, then the offending items will be removed (unlike the other place where they will send you a standard email and do nothing)

It is a chicken and egg situation. If we can all keep increasing our listings and try to search here first when we want to buy, ebid will get there in the end.

Are there any plans to have a power seller type thing? Or some way to show particually successful sellers by feedback ratings/percentage of postive, neutral and negative ratings? just because a seller has high feedback doesn't mean their reliable after all, they could still have loads of negs

None plans at the moment, feel free to start a discussion as to the hows and whys of it all and we'll get one going if theres a big response.
