    Hi, my post is just above yours and I live in Ireland. Was buying and selling on Greedbay for the last 5 years and had a shop there for the last year which was doing fine, but I closed it a few weeks ago because of the fee changes. You're right, they don't want small (or medium) sellers on Greedbay anymore.
    Give it a try here and see what happens. Welcome aboard

    Hi Rocky - Welcome to eBid - your suggestions as to the forums 'over the other side' have been implimented - but unfortunately many of them get removed.
    One member here who is still selling there set up his automatic feedback to include references to eBid. Last I heard they were still there, also some were listing such things as "ancient" manuscripts foretelling eBays future with the full text written into the listing to the effect to come over to eBid!

    GreedBay has either given up deleting posts mentioning eBid or they don't care. There are several threads now going strong with very unhappy people telling why they're leaving and where they're going (most of them are coming here).

    I'm delighted to see new sellers, that's what we need to bring buyers here. Last couple of times I checked on Google, eBid auctions were ranking higher than GreedBay auctions, they are definitely doing something right here!

    Smile Hello, to everyone--like most everyone I am a 'ebay ex

    Well a big shout out to everyone whom may read this..I am like most on here--an 'EX EBAYER' whom just can not take it anymore...
    Seems like they only continue to make money off me and yet still want more...
    So I have thrown in the towel and move onto hopefully much greenier pastures....as this old gray mare has retired from ebay...
    Hope this sites sales will allow me to make money instead of costing money or just about brecking even...LOL
    Well my hats are off to you all---hope to try my best to make this site take off and over run my old one...

    Hi to all the new refugees, welcome to eBid, OK to help you get started add a signature link to your posts so us nosey lot have an easy link to your items whilst reading the forums, read this thread http://helpdesk.ebid.net/showthread.php?t=100959 then fill in some info on Your About Me Page so people know about you as a seller. Perhaps buy a few things to kickstart your feedback over here, always looks better than a zero, ( I have some nice cheap prints ) have a look at my listings to see how I dealt with the zero feedback problem when I started.

    Then email all YOUR (not Greedbay's they are a venue, they keep telling us) customers, and tell them where you are, give them a link to your listings. Grab the records while you can and from paypal records as well. That should keep you busy for a bit, and shout if you need a hand. Additional body parts incur a small fee Oh and finally read the forums there is a lot of useful information on here.

    Hi, I'm Carri and my eBid handle is "FindersKeepers". I defected from eBay because of their ridiculous new policies and the higher fees. I was paying more to them than I was making!
    I am anxious to get going here but I am having a problem - I've tried to find the answer but can't. How do I "Save" my "All About Me" page? I've managed to download/upload the picture I want to use, and have typed in my text, but now what?
    Thanks in advance!
