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.

Wrong 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.

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

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.

How 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.
