New Auction site feedback

I read about it recently on another selling board I belong to.

I have it bookmarked but haven't had time to check it out.

If you have, what do YOU think?

Comments?
Thanks,
Donna

The advantage I see right now is that all the listings are automatically submitted to Froogle and Google base.
I checked the site stats and notice MSN bots are also very busy crawling the listings.

Listings: $561401.12
Bids: $12675.51
Total Sales: $5555.00

Not too shabby for a new auction site with 580+ users.

Also, free store front.

with their penny pricing, it probably wont be long until filled with junk stuff - unfortunately

but you never know... hopefully it will stay fairly decent, at least for long enough for all of us to try it out

What little bit of looking I did, I liked. (aside from worries about future as result of penny fees)

I just signed up there. Looks promising. A 100 auction listings there for only a $1 compared to ebay $70+ I dont think the penny fees would hurt anything. I know people jump on and list their more expensive items when ebay has a sale on listing fees. Hopefully, more people will sign up there.

This looks promising,I noticed they have a referal program so if someone has a account post your nick so I can sign up using it, we can keep this going and use the next person to sign up under.

States you get a 1.00 credit for each referal that signs up with your nick.

You also get a 10.00 credit for signing up. You can add me as a referal if you wish. My nick on there is rowsofclothes. Thanks

Looks like they give you a referal link.
Heres mine

Hi angelisa, I just sighned up with hibidder myself, I'm begining to think that we have to find alternat auction sites to ebay, they have gotten totally out of control. I reported a fraudulent user to them three days ago and they suspended me!! Now they won't respond to my enquieries, they don't seem to care about thier ligit customers at all while fruads run rampent

Hi BEDAZZLE....just signed up using your user link. This is REALLY a new experience for me, so I'll probably need help if there is anything technical about doing things.

I have some questions about listing in more than one site, i.e. EBAY or HiBid. Say I am selling a pair of jeans, obviously I can't have them listed in both places at the same time, so how do YOU keep the auction items separate? Two sets of books? Or, if I have a store, but only have one of a kind items, (we sell clothes, train parts and whatever I can find that may sell) how does one handle those sales...especially if I have the store linked to both EBAY and HiBid?....if I sell it via the store, does it automatically disappear from the two auction sites?

I'm probably not explaining this correctly.

Well I've been reading their boards alot and have posted alittle, but what I see it is full of nice and helpful people and just like here the adminstration is right there helping within mintues.

They have a couple contest that just started, they are paying cold hard CASH to the winners, go to the community and check out the first forum, new/current contest.

I haven't gotten anything listed there yet, but it don't look to hard.
