GBnew seller - already saving on fees Just started selling on eBid and once you get used to the layout/interface, it's super easy. I thought it would take a little more time for things to sell than on ebay because of the smaller traffic but I'm already selling well and saving on ebays extortionate selling fees ! I went for the platinum membership for lifetime free or low fees and I'm already saving money compared to if I'd sold on ebay. Not only that, having the ability to have an item auction start on first bid is gold ! Great stuff so far

GBWrong item delivered, no resolution Ordered item and was shipped the wrong item. Contacted seller who initally responded and then lost interest and has not rectified the sale after four attempts to contact. Contacted ebid who responded to say "We are not involved in the actual transaction between buyers and sellers." Take care, you clearly have no rights, limited redress and ebid themselves disassociate themselves from their business. Edit - in response to ebid's reply... Yes you did ship me something, but the trick is that should be what I ordered, not some other random box. The reply nicely illustrates the point I'm trying to make in this review.

GBFunctional website. Used the site after finding via reverse image search an item that couldn't be found elsewhere. The site is functional. No troubles loading pages, creating an account or during checkout. One month later there's a follow-up email requesting feedback (review) which is IMO a sign the company is interested in what they are doing; the site is not a Set Up Once And Forever cash milkcow but being quality monitored.

GBEbid a Excellent site for listing on… Ebid a Excellent site for listing on your own shop, better than Ebay with constant emails policy and rules changes.. Listing on Ebay massive charges on % on everything even postage which they don't pay a penny on yet charge the sellers % on postage. No question as people call them greedybay will be losing a lot of sellers.

GBHow to Grow and expand eBid since I mainly deal with stamps and a few coins, it would be nice to see eBid take out an advertisement in both Linn's Stamp News as well and Coin World, and Maybe place an ad with American Philatelic Society in their monthly journal. I recently did a mass mailing to all my past buyer from THAT OTHER rip off auction site, and the response has been very good. So now I have begun tailoring to their previous purchases. It so far seems to be working.
