Ebay versus Ebid

[madelaine]

Welcome to all refugees! Take a little time to look around. The business model is slightly different here. For example, most items sell as BIN.

Hi, just signed up and dropping by to make my presence known ... I too, have had quite enough of ebay's inept and greedy habits and am hoping this site will be a refreshing and worthwhile change!

Me too. Egreed makes obscene profits but still feels it has to abuse the small sellers. They keep the powersellers sweet with discounts to counter-act the fvf hike. I don't like getting treated like a peasant and although I am aware it will take a bit of time and some effort to get my operation up and running on ebid, i'm sure that with many people fleeing Egreed the sales will come eventually. I don't buy much from Egreed (perhaps only a half dozen items per year or so) but I am making a promise to myself that when I come to make my next purchase, EBid will be the place I will purchase from. If everyone does everything they can, we can all benefit.

Quite so, everything you purchase on Greedbay helps to perpetuate the problem!

Hi all
I agree with all the above comments. I too am a refugee from the dark side and I have nothing but praise for this wonderful site and everyone involved with it. When I joined a couple of weeks ago,I wasn't sure what to go for so I started off with a one months seller + for £6.99. After a few days I got over my initial fear of the unknown and realised that it would be much better to go with the upgrade to Lifetime+ £49.99. I thought I would have to write off the £6.99 that I had already paid but that was not the case, they deducted it from the £49.99, so I only had to pay £43.00. How cool is that? I was totally chuffed. As for the people who post on here, they are wonderful and so generous with their help ( especially to the non-computer types like me) When I was having a problem with getting my auction link to work , Damien took me by the hand and walked me through it step-by-step. I haven't sold anything yet, but I don't care it's just so nice to be here.

Hi all , Just a quick note to congradulate everyone on EBID in showing there is life after FEEBAY . As a former Powerseller on EBAY I have taken the plunge on Joined EBID . I got fed up in paying 100.00 of euro's each month for listing fees . Hope all goes well
