Ok..It may just be me but how do you see what the

Hi gitasan, I'm not aware of a simple way to see what others are selling, but what you have done is the right idea, in my view, put a link in your signature. And thanks for reminding me, I've popped mine in there now!

Pete, I think that it should just come up all the time. Now with your link I was easily able to look at your items. (ps great books!)

Don't you think it would increase everyones visiblity if you could just link onto the name or something easier.

I forget to put my link many times.

Hi gitasan,
Remember alot of these names are not the same as people's ebay user IDs (myself for example).
An easy way to search on Ebay is to go to 'advanced search' at the top, click 'find a member' on the left column and enter the name you wish to look up. But if the Auctiva ID isn't the same as the Ebay ID you won't find it....

Thanks gitasan (I notice you haven't bid on any yet! ) The trick is to put the link in your forum signature. At the top of this thread, click the left hand tab (Go), then Personal Zone, then Profile. Over on the right, click View/Edit Complete Profile, then scroll down to the Signature box. Put what you want in there, submit it, and hey ho, Bob's your uncle. You won't forget it again.

EDIT - I just looked at your store, you've got lots of nice stuff But what you could really do with is some books I could do a deal on postage!

member 8... ok but what if I wanted to look at your stuff, i tried to even thru Auctiva and was not able to. If I wanted to take the time to do it I could... but takes too much time.

I just think we may be able to get more hits/purchases if it was just an easy click. just me

handlep... I do have some books that sell like HOT CAKES in the UK...Madonna book set. take a look good shipping rates too

Right, the Auctiva message boards are set up for anonymity. There are many others , like myself, that you wouldn't be able to find unless we either provided a link, or posted in the 'sell your stuff' section.....which in my case doesn't matter that much because I don't have a store, only auctions, so sometimes there's nothing to see anyway

ok...maybe I missed the point of these boards. (hope you do not mind me...not trying to be fresh or anything.)
But when people put stuff up on sell it now. it is so hard to get to their stuff unless they remember to put the link. It would be useful if you wanted people to see your stuff they could? that's just my thought.
thanks for your help!

Hi many people do like the anonymity that Auctiva provides. I got berated in a thread I was posting to the other day because I had nothing for sale at the time??? BTW I still do not, but I like the discussion boards here. I am sure there is no requirement to have something for sale when you post. It does help when a newbie comes on with a question about modifying a listing to be able to find their listings. Usually they post a generic question about why does my auction look such and such a way but do not provide a link. It would be nice if everyone was required to put a link in their profile that they could OPTIONALLY add when posting if they wanted to.
Gitasan I do like to look at what others have for sale but I am sure some members do not want that.
Maybe someone is in on the ground floor of Widgets and does not want other sellers to see how many they are selling and then trying to find a supply to sell themselves. Too much competition has a tendency to drive prices down as you know.
I would never make it required to have a link.

In the spring/summer I definitely provide a link, that's my busy season and I ALWAYS have auctions up, end of Feb. thru Aug.
But during fall and winter, I only list auctions intermittantly (slow season) so it hardly seems worth it to me right now. Like Taz, I have nothing listed right now, stuff just ended the other night.

Taz...knew you would reply
yes it would be nice to have the option to put the link!
Thanks to all for your thoughts..

I just added my store to my signature. But I noticed the signature box says NO html without permission. Hope posting an auctive store is ok

Hi Karen, don't worry, that's just a URL, it's not actually HTML. You can recognise HTML because it will have tags, like this "<b> </b>" (that one is to make the text bold, for example), and that's what you wouldn't have been able to put in your signature.

HTH.
