CURRENTLY FOR SALE

Well - Perhaps I've been a little harsh about shifting ALL my sales to Ebid.

I think it fair to say, both sites are extremely useful tools for buying and selling. Granted my prices on Ebay are in general much higher, but if folks are happier with the service, and the safety that's fine by me. I will happily list on both sites, unti it become unviable to do so.

Please feel free to click on any of my stores or auction linsk to compare prices.

The service you recieve will be the same regardless of which you choose.

I currently have 3 stores open on EBID


OUT ON THE FLOOR -which is to sell records.

TOY PALLOI- which is to sell toys, traditional games and electronic console games.

THE PAPERBOYS PLEASURE- which is to sell books and magazines.

Then of course there is my Ebay profile. CrazyJay on Ebay

I'm moving most of my sales to EBID

For quite some time I've been a regular seller on THE very well known auction site. Over that time they have introduced more and more draconian rules, which make it less and less viable to sell through them. The prices they charge are going through the roof, and of course that means that the prices sellers have to charge also increase to cover it. Now they are introducing an enforced FREE postage on some items - Who is that good for? - Not the seller, they still have to pay for postage. Not the buyer, as the price of the item will have to increase to cover it. ONLY the auction site will gain, as they will now claim commission on the whole price, not just the actual sale price!

So I am now selling on Ebid, where commission charges are low, and you don't even pay at all if the item doesn't sell! The feedback system still works and is better than the other site ever was. The only problem is, there are fewer bidders / buyers at the moment - (Which is actually good from a buyers perspective, as prices tend to stay at the lower end.)

I currently have 2 stores open:

OUT ON THE FLOOR -which is to sell records.

TOY PALLOI- which is to sell toys, traditional games and electronic console games.

I also have a couple of other stores in the making to sell books and magazines with one more for random junk and collectibles.

As there are still more customers on the other site I will continue to list there, and pay their extortionate rates - or rather those who choose to buy items I list there will be paying their charges - The option to buy the same item from my EBID store will be there though!
