DO NOT PART WITH YOUR CASH. The Newsletter,Introductory E-Mail I received from E-Bid sounded promising,Lower Fees than E-Bay,Hundreds of Happy customers and Sellers.I was getting fed up with E-Bay since they Introduced Higher Fees for Private Sellers.I was duped by E-Bid and feel I have been Misled by their False Advertising. I blame Myself,I should Have been more vigilant and my common sense should have kicked in.we all learn from our Mistakes,I certainly Have. I paid the £49.99 Fee for Life time Membership around 5 Months ago and have not sold one single Item.All of my Items are New,Low cost,I had a lot of Craft Items on the Site.Reasonably Priced.I have had no Messages,No Interest from anyone.I actually sold more Items on E-Bay UK.Looks like I will Have to go back to E-Bay £49.99 Poorer. E-Bid should be Investigated and Shut down.I have spoken to Many sellers on the Site and they all report the same Problems,we cant all be wrong. Customer Service on E-Bid is non existent and if you are one of the Lucky ones that do get a reply back,it is an E-Mail offering their Membership Terms even though you are already a full Member.They do not respond to any complaints,Concerns,Enquiries.It is a disgrace.

On my first (and only) purchase at eBid, the seller sends the wrong item. If this were eBay or Amazon, returns would be very easy to sort out. Not at eBid - there is no return option anywhere! Apparently I have to contact the seller and sort it out with him/her. Once I have sorted this mess out, I will be deleting my eBid account.

eBid does not vet sellers or offer any assistance if you have a problem. In the event you have a dispute they suggest you contact the payment provider or report the seller to the authorities !!

As normal you register then it makes a life time offer of selling for £49. A few hours later it blocks me and asks for ID and address and this is after I paid using paypal !!! BEWARE THAT SOME OF THE REVIEWS WHICH ARE POSITIVE REGARDING EBID ARE FAKE. STAY AWAY FROM THESE GUYS.

The site is nicely laid out, easy to use. Traffic seems to be the big problem, I would not expect barn busting sales if your going to try it. However, considering the low cost to keep items listed on ebid it is definitely attractive considering the high fees charged by ebay. I keep deleting ebid items which sold on ebay even though I have listed slightly at a lower price on ebid. In approx 2 months on ebid I haven't experienced a single sale. I didn't opt for the site upgrade as I simply wished to test ebid's performance. I would like to see a search feature that selected past sales and current items with bids. Nice platform, good payment options, ability to import items from ebay are all positives. If the traffic was better and with some additional features I would raise my review assessment.

We are sellers in ebid.net located in USA, we subscribe to ebid but they charged us sales tax. Sales tax is only for local to UK not USA seller subscriber. Also, they scam us with their sellers+ lifetime upgrade, we pay 49$ and avail the upgrade promo, they intentionally did not upgrade our account so they can charged us 25$ yearly. How did they do it, very easy, they will charged you international sales tax!so it will cause a setting problem in your seller subscription page. At the end of your first year, they will charged you 25$ even you have upgraded your account to seller+ lifetime at the time you avail the 49$ promo. So again, USA SELLERS beware of ebid.net auction site, they are scam , WORSE THAN EBAY. With ebay, they will scam you in front, in ebid.net, ebid will scam you by system problem and behind the scene charges. Plus this folks are not a member of BBB and no telephone number. So there is no way you can complain this scam site to state regulating body. Ebid has branch in Florida, but can be dummy address as its possible not a member of BBB.

I've been with www.ebid.net for over 4 years now and I have not looked back. I'm a seller lifetime member running 5 FREE stores paying only 2% Final Value Fees when my item sells (using gallery auction style listings) - that's it, no other fees. eBid allow YOU to be in control of shipping prices and payment methods and your listings receive FREE exposure worldwide (using your options of countries you are willing to sell and ship to). eBid allow editing of feedback which is a two way system if and when a transaction changes for the worse or betterment. Scammers are dealt with swiftly by the eBid management, with the help of it's members. The forums are second to none with the many helpful and friendly members only too happy and willing to help others succeed. If you enjoy the challenge of advertising your wares and raking in profits, then eBid is the place to be. If you prefer to list your items and sit back and wait for sales to happen with less profits, then, for exorbitant fees, you can enjoy the eBay experience. When you join www.ebid.net you will need to clear your mind of the ebay mentality and embrace the eBid way as things are done differently. eBid have a huge successful campaign running on Facebook plus they have a deal with Google shopping where every single auction listing, with a Buy Now price, receives lots of automatic free exposure. I'll be with eBid for a long time as it works for me just fine. The fees are low but we have to work at it to sell our items unlike Ebay where you pay very high fees, sit back, and wait for sales to happen. However, there are a few newcomers too eager and quick to make negative comments about eBid because they expect to pay low to no fees and expect all of the Ebay services including quick sales within days of joining eBid.

I was a bit worried about paying the £49.99 life time fee, but over 860 sales later have more than made money back. Yes you have to work harder at it, but with friendly forums, excellent support from Ebid themselves, it's a fun way of doing it. Two plus points for me very low selling fees and not having to accept Paypal. Go and join the fun and visit Santas Grotto's while your there.

eBid is a wonderful site for me as a seller. One reasonable lifetime fee, five free stores, currently running over 7,500 listings with no additional fees. We get up to five pictures and thumbnails with each listing, also with no added fee. Easy to use, lots of helpful applications for sellers, and we can accept any payment type we want, eBid has no restrictions. I was on the big site for several years, and we had more sales on eBid in the same time period. A bonus is that we can accept any payment type we want, eBid makes no restrictions. I also found the forums have a lot of active members who actually want to help each other. Very friendly, informative, and I generally got help in a few hours when I had problems. On the rare occasions when I had to contract the eBid support staff, I got an answer from a real human being, and they answered the question. It did take a few days to get set up, because eBid takes time to ensure new members are giving valid information. Very little dishonesty on eBid by either sellers or buyers. eBid is growing fast, over the past year I've found more and more items to buy, and that is just as pleasant an experience. Good products at low prices.

What I like about Ebid is that I can list loads of items without cost and I only pay a small amount when they sell. This is great for me because I get a better return than on another site where I don't list very much because of the high cost of listing. Ebid is easy to use and very friendly. The Forum answers any questions I have and makes Ebid feel like a good place to be. I averaged 50 sales a month for the last couple of months, with a couple of thousand items listed.

I have been trading on eBid on and off since 2006 alongside other auction sites. I am very happy with my sales and I made my first profit in the last tax year which was the first tax year where I traded on eBid exclusively. I am also a buyer on eBid and always look there first when shopping on-line. I will always recommend eBid to friends as the site is fabulous for buyers and sellers alike. Sales have been slower for me than they were on eBay but I would rather trade at a profit than at a loss which was the case for me when I traded on eBay.
