Re: Second Chance Offer lead me to MC999
I use second chance offers a lot during the Holidays last year and never had an issue
Last year was great, there was a loophole that is now closed, but you once were able to list as many second chance offers as you had bidders per item like now but they always allowed you to list the item and it didn't matter what your limits were.
So say you had only $1000 left you were able to list $2000 or whatever in second chance listings
Now if u did it on a regular account they would eventually take them down within one hour after listing them
But on TRS accounts they never took them down, it was so great last December , I had an account that was TRS for 5 months straight but only had 100/5000 limits
So I listed 100 Auctions starting at .99 and I was selling an item that the auctions ended at $200 sometimes more sometimes little less
Anyway after all the auctions were done I sold 100items and 20K so I was well over the limit
Now with all those Auctions I was able to send out sometimes 4-6 second chance Auctions per item, sometimes 5 people were within one dollar of the winning bid so I was able to sell another 5 second chance items per one of the original listing and make $1000 more from just one listing
Now some I was only able to sell 1 or 2 second chances because the buds would be $199, $198, and $105 so Id send just two
But anyway last year I loved second chance Listings in December, and like I said you used to be able to list them on any account despite limits but only TRS accounts were left to sell
I only found second chance offering good during December though, if I'd try it any other month Id rarely get someone to accept it, December there are so many buyers that need that holiday gift that almost every offer Id send the buyer would accept
This year , you can't even get the listing up unless you have enough limits, which is not even worth doing during the holidays because your just wasting valuable time , on an item your not sure would sell or not, so for me Id rather get a new listing going than do a second chance
I really miss eBay just a year ago
