Discussion Forum for "List to Win" Giveaway.

Well that's motivation enough to get me off my butt and get back to listing!

Thanks Auctiva

The theory "the more you list the better chance you have" would be nice. Bill,can you get the time frame it takes to create similar corrected before the 30th? It currently takes 24 second to open a create similar and 13 second to open the "Full Size Editor" - that's 37 second of wasted time per listing. I'd give anything to go back to the rapid listing that Auctiva used to have. Thanks in advance.

Do store listings count?

I have a new line to get listed and I may just hold off until the 30th if so

Awesome contest! I second the question: Do store listings count? Though, I can see pros and cons to both.

Just offering my 2 cents: I don't have a store so no one can accuse me of being biased towards store listings but IMO, a store listing is just as valid as any other listing. Yes you save money on the insertion cost but the final value fee is higher.

Good question. Store Item's listed during the giveaway will count.

Thanks!

Good question. The item has to be 'listed' with Auctiva. Relisting (on eBay) an item that was previously listed with Auctiva does not count. This is not be *difficult, but it is because we will be selecting the winner out of the database of 'posted' listings during the time period of the giveaway.

*(we have no way to identify relisted items).

Will just any kind of pastcard do?

Thank you Auctiva for offering this promo! I needed some incentive to get going with my auctions!

Why oh why does this competition only apply to US Residents, according to the Terms & Conditions? That's not much consolation to those of us in other countries that have had things go wrong in the move!! Any explaination there?

Provided that it is not offensive, any postcard will be fine as an entry if you do not plan on listing with Auctiva during the 10 days.

Posted mine in auction and am all set..now to win...this is great...good luck everyone..!!!

This is not our choice. There are a surprising amount of laws related to contests and giveaways. This is one of them.

Bill

I'm sorry. I thought I read in the rules that you had to send in a postcard regardless to be eligible. Please clarify.

Well I am a member of a number of US organisations that offer cash prizes and other prizes to their International members. You would think if you were going to do it "In gratitude for your understanding during the move" as you mentioned in the announcement, that you would do it properly so as to give everyone a chance! It's not very sincere if you only offer it "in gratitude" to some members and not all!

Wow! I'm sort of speechless that people are complaining. They're trying to do something good here! Me, me, me....

Yeah, but that's very easy to say when you're eligible!! For those of us who aren't eligible, there's no good in it at all! As a matter of fact, it's actually showing favouritism to some members over others!!

I've never seen lady justice with a sincerity badge. It might just be California laws. After dealing with Ebay all this time, I know how different those CA laws can be.
Thanks fellas. This is my relisting night. When I'm done, I'll start listing. Just need to make sure I don't have to send a postcard in. Is that correct?
