Is eBid the new eBay ?

eBid has just been voted best eBay alternative by Webuser Magazine and also reviewed as best alternative to eBay by TopTenReviews.com

eBid.net 

eBid.net is an online auctions website founded in December 1998. eBid operates in 18 countries and more are are being added.


Listing a basic auction on eBid is FREE then when your item sells all you pay is small final value fee of 3% which means "no sales no fees", I would also recommend using Google checkout instead of paypal as it costs far less and is more secure.

Currently eBid has 3 membership levels available:

(1) Buyer : Free to buy and submit wanted ad's.

(2) Seller : Free verification, Free to list and all you pay is a small final value fee of 3%, extra options such as extra categories, thumbnail, Buy it now, etc are available for a very small extra fee.

(3) Seller Plus+ : Subscription based membership aimed at professional sellers with a recurring fee every 7,30,90,365 days, or a one off lifetime payment. Seller Plus+ members can open up to 5 shops free, Seller Plus+ members can list a "free" auction with zero fvf's and for a "gallery" auction you pay a 2% fvf. Options like BIN only auctions & Run until Sold, are also available for free.

I have enjoyed taking my time building up my listings and with no pressure because of listing fees. I just recently added Paypal, and changed my subscription to "Lifetime". I look forward to adding my art, more antiques, and even furniture with pickup, in the near future. Recommend this site (Oh, yes I had sold over 450 items on e-Bay over the years, but look forward to branching out and having fun.

Michael, you signed up for a monthly subscription thereby authorising eBid to debit your account/card MONTHLY. If you wish to cancel this subscription log in to your MyeBid >>>My Subscriptions, and downgrade to Buyer only. That should solve your problem. I heartily recommend that you read the terms much more carefully in the future ! :-) Kind Regards....... e_nv

I've never heard of ebid before! Often times I'm asked for alternative to craiglist (they don't like to meet in person) and eBay (too expensive!). Great lens!
