What a dirty trick to rid themselves of lifetime subs I've been with them for the best part of their existence I was an early subscriber lifetime sub, and it seems they are trying bad practices in removing lifetime subs by using ways such as asking you to confirm your identity with a photo pass, That's ok in itself, but it's the way they are doing it that worries me, they sent me 6 emails and complained about Q&A had a URL in it. The next thing I knew, another 6 emails saying it was against their policies, I understand that, and it was just 1 time and a mistake, why send me 6 threatening emails? Then I get an email saying they are doing random security checks and oh ya it just so happens to be me and never had this in 8 years or however long it is, anyway my account is suspended until I send them my photo ID. What a dirty trick to rid themselves of lifetime subs. I will give them my ID, but that's dirty by any stretch of the imagination.

Lower fees than other platforms, expect some old school looking here and there. Lower fees than other platforms, though many features and website seem somewhat old school. Listings take a day or two to upload to google shopping. Works okay for simple transactions anyway.

I've been using Ebid for some time I've been using Ebid for some time, and it's a much better platform than eBay, for both buyers and sellers. The more sensible fee structure means sellers on Ebid can charge less than on rival platforms, listing's simpler and the search engine actually works. Plus PayPal is included in the payment options. So it's cheaper and easier to sell on Ebid, and easier to find what you're looking for if you're buying. And PayPal ensures that transactions are safe and secure.

Don't touch them unless you're on PayPal! Ordered a software package, duly paid for it through PayPal, then got directed back to the seller only to find I was being asked to "Buy" it all over again. I contacted the seller through eBid AND his PayPal email, got nothing. Thankfully the PayPal Resolution process refunded me immediately!

new 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
