I have never attempted doing anything like this since I started ebaying in 1999!


I listed a very unusal item and I want to make pulse!

PULSE is a list of the items with the most watchers on ebay. also lists the most popular searches, and stores with most product
http://pulse.ebay.com overall top watched items are at bottom of page, or select a category and view top ones for specific categories.

please add this to your watch list on each of your id's and watch it as a "guest".

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=9524...0&fromMakeTrack=true

Ask everyone you know to watch this item. Heck, email it to your local news stations!

Any other suggestions on ways to get people to SEE it and WATCH it?

For those of you who might not know...Our own WAHM spent some time on the PULSE for one of her auctions. <insert applause>

Peace,
Donna
Did you see the boxes covered in 1000.00 bills on the pulse?

What a crock of crap ... they are so fake I can't believe people are actually believing they are real. The seller can't even get her story straight, on one of the listings she says:
A: This is being sold as a decorative box only as per the wishes of the owner, no returns and being sold as is with the money glued to the box, just as the auction states. We are the broker for the owner who wishes to sell this in this way and am duty bound to respect their wishes. They have been informed and are aware they could earn much more if these bills if being real were sold one at a time to collectors. The truth be told the owner of this box is not in need of extra funds, this is there way of cleaning house. A box worth half a million dollars or more is nothing more than a donation to them, if only we all should be so lucky. Thank you for your interest. Laverne

In the other listing she states:
A: The glue has blurred the fine details of the bills but from what I can see, I see different numbers but the eyes aren't as good as they used to be. If I thought this was fake bills I would throw it away and if I was sure they were real I would try to get them cleaned and seperated and not offer them on ebay or at least in this condition as I'm very sure the value would be a whole lot higher if I did. Also if I knew for certain that I could clean these, then I would. I however am too afraid to try to clean these so I am parting with it for some other brave soul to take this to the next level and clean these. I wish who ever ends up with these all the luck in their attempts to clean these. My late husband was going to try to clean these up himself thinking that he could soak these in warm water but never got around to doing it and I'm doing spring cleaning and there just taking up space and won't do anyone any good setting in my bedroom closet on my shelf. I would rather have the closet space than mess these up tying to clean them when I am not sure how to do it or if there even real and would be wasteing my time and effort when nothing will come from it. I now rid myself of the problem once and for all and let someone else take a crack at it. Laverne

So they are selling them for someone else yet they have been sitting in her closet collecting dust? LMAO ...
i was reading that ad myself the other day (yesterday?) and throughout the ad she basically says that the bills are real.

you'd think that she could be brought up on charges for mail fraid and for trying to pass counterfeit bills, once the buyer finds out the truth.

not to mention the whole ethics thing. no way could i do that sort of crap as a seller.

i feel sorry for whoever ends up buying it. Frown

another one of her past auctions, she pretty much said over and over that the buyer would be getting a vehicle. in tiny font size at bottom she didnt flat out say it wasnt a vehicle, but did make it more evident that it wasnt.

sellers like that should be NARU'd, imho. They do more to hurt ebay then to help it. Same with all those that sell "how to get rich on ebay" crap. And dont even get me started on the ones that sell gold plated jewelry, but throughout the ad refer to it as 18K, 22K, etc, and only tell the truth in tiny print that's buried in the ad.
Getting on the Pulse is sometimes a "not so good" thing. It seems most of those auctions get closed by eBay in the last day/hours.

I hope this doesn't happen to BT. I want to see this go higher in price! (plus the cross-sell advertising just can't be beat!)

Yeah! She made GOOFYAUCTIONS AND TOTALLYCRAZYAUCTIONS!

I loved the questions you got on your cookies last year Danielle/WAHM.

The questions on this auction are priceless and I've been trying to come up with a good one myself. You'd think as witty as I am <smile> I'd be able to come up with a good one.
HA!

Nyuck, Nyuck!

EXPOSURE! <smile>
Plus it's fun to see your ID there and the placement in front of all the other eBay'ers that are selling.

If you're on the pulse then that means your out there ALOT more than other sellers in that category. When you're out there alot more then the it's higher search engine placement and more.

It also makes you more vulnerable for attacks from competitors and more. I guess I should get that aluminum hat deflector. <smile>

Take care, Donna

Remember how many times I had to relist mine and finally made it to the end?

Gotta dot those i's and cross those t's and don't skip a beat Wink

Gosh Danielle,

How many times was it canned? I think I remember at a minimum five.

And what I hate is eBay will can it on the last day...as if they are enjoying the extra media/websites clicking into the auction..but waiting till just the right time to cancel it.

I wish you could find the pics to the auction..Priceless!

Tee hee,
Donna

Here's one of the AC relists:

But no pictures, they were hosted on SD Razz
In the Tinfoil Hats in Pop Culture section of listing, it had (with the curseword not censored - censoring of it is by me for posting here)

quote:
In his autobiography, Frank Zappa refers to Echo Park residents "Crazy Jerry," an electricity addict and speed user who had been institutionalized a number of times, and his roommate known only as "Wild Bill the Mannequin F*cker," a chemist and methamphetamine cook who modified department store mannequines for sexual uses. Both are reputed to have employed metallic hats (vegetable steamers, aluminium pots, tin-foil etc.,) to "keep people from reading their minds." Zappa once recorded Crazy Jerry's life story, excerpts of which can be heard on some of his early recordings.
