# 3 BIGGEST Ebay Seller--NOW on Bidtopia
 

HI:
The # 3 Largest, and one of the oldest Ebay Sellers, Bargainland, is now on Bidtopia....

You can see their auctions here:

(Even though they left ebay last year, their ebay id is still alive)-- I have been watching to see if they returned, and nothing.
I was assuming, that they recd a seller notice for low dsr's, and was waiting for more positives, but still...nothing. Looks like theyre gone for good..

I feel it is just the beginning of alot of sellers jumping off the ebay ship by looking for other alternatives, will take some time, but slowly over time sellers will leave ebay and buyers will follow.

I have watched this seller for a long time, they sell 20k items per month on average. They usually get allot of negatives in a month but with feedback like they get it doesnt hurt them.
Wife bought something from them several years ago and it took 6 weeks to get the item.

Bargainland ceased its eBay operations last year when it launched its own auction site called Bidtopia, which is a separately run company.

I looked up bidtopia's ratings on alexa.com and based on that I'm surprised at the kind of activity I see on there. It doesn't seemed like I had ever heard of that site before. Although I am aware that alexa is not the most accurate way to see how popular a site is..

They have built a huge customer base and rely on them for the business, they then pick up business from other sources for the extra clientele.

alexa is useless. you can even inflate alexa traffic by putting in special code that makes every visitor to your site look like they have the alexa toolbar.
