Interesting stat???

Late yesterday afternoon I posted 5 items to the Music & CD's Board at Pinterest.
This morning those particular 5 items, have views at my eBid store at a ratio of 6 to Zero for other similar items. Interesting

I'm hoping they check out all the other stores as well.

It does seem that Pinterest is the site to watch at the moment.

I've looked at it and just don't get it.

Tweeting your items has the same effect. I just don't understand Pintrest either!

Tweeting is like broadcasting, very briefly.

Pinterest is more like pinning up a poster which people may walk past at any time for months or years afterwards.

Explained that very well..

Pinterest is what we should all be using.
And also a Pinterest look alike - Wanelo.

Maybe, I'm just thick but doesn't a poster go out of date. If I pin something today and it sells next day do I have to unpin it, or what?

While it is true that direct links of sold/deleted listings are broken, people viewing such links are still redirected back to eBid & hopefully will take a look around the site.
This removes the need to edit out pins that have ended or sold.

Ok, signed up (as they were not asking for personal information), pinned a couple of things, but still don't get it.

The only way I can see what I have pinned is to view my own pins...so how does anyone else see them?

I seem to recall mention that if someone arrives at a sold or closed item via an external link that eBid now puts up a message pointing to either the re-listed item or to the seller's other items if the original item is no longer available. Can anyone confirm that?
