my stats on other auction sites

[yogarelax]

Now this is just my fyi on my very short time on 3 other auction sites.
1. do not have a lot listed at this time.
2. bidville & ewaey , according to the counters, do not show anyone even LOOKING at my auctions.
c. ebid shows 50, 60 lookers at my auctions, no sales.
4. But i am going to keep listing , try letting my ebay buyers know about these sites, by US mail & by emails..
5. I know it is silly, but I still very unhappy about ebay , all my hard work to be a good seller, & then THE AX!!!!.
6. PISSES ME OFF!!!!!!!
7. But, nothing ventured, nothing gained.
8. I came to the fork in the road.... and I took it!!.

i just looked up ewaey, it looks like a bit of a joke. no wonder ebay has no serious competitors when people are willing to create such bs alternatives. Bidville is no better.

I am having positive results for the Australia alternative Oztion, shame you guys cant join unless your in aus/nz

But, how do you creare a competion with ebay. My opinion is folks LOVE buying off ebay. At Chrisrmas I sold items at twice the price that someone could purchase from the retailers & yet, they choose ebay. One example is Hasbro.. anyone could purchase from their website { as I did }, lots cheaper than from me. heavens I found their website so anyone could. that is just one example.
People still chose ebay sellers. So what is the draw??? Obviously it is not just price. i am stumped.

It's just the only 'serious' choice that people know works. Other sites for the most part are unknown and no one talks about them, besides Amazon. But Amazon isn't eBay.

I sell low priced items on amazon for fixed price and I'm actually doing pretty good on there.

I used to sell 2-10 items per day on ebay. After being on Amazon for 1 week I am selling 2 items per day...Its a start..

I have 2000 items on Ioffer and haven't sold one...

What is amazon's payment system like with them fishing for your bank account information? Can they take money out?

What's Amazon's vero like?

They take a percentage right off the top of what someone pays you. It looks to be around 12%. Other than that they automatically deposit the money in your checking account twice a month.
