Become an eBay addict, just like me!

Advantages: Its free, easy to use, makes uploading auctions a LOT easier
Disadvantages: None really

...EBay launched a tool a couple of years ago to try and boost the number of listings its Power Sellers were uploading. It was and still is to this day an extremely popular 'tool' going by the name of "Turbo Lister". It certainly aids anyone who uploads anything to sell on eBay, not just those who are Power Sellers. In my time I have been a Power Seller on eBay and have uploaded hundreds upon hundreds of auctions over the years. I can honestly say though that without such a tool as Turbo Lister, I might not have even become such an eBay selling addict as I once were. I certainly would never have even attempted at uploading as many auctions as I used to do! I first came across Turbo Lister probably about 2 years ago now when I first started uploading more than the odd item onto eBay. I had never heard of it prior to a friend...

Seller on E-bay? Don't miss this!

Advantages: It's free, easy to use and saves a lot of time
Disadvantages: Being on a dial up modem can make downloading the program and updates slow.

...E-bay Turbo Lister was a program I came across about a year ago when I was selling a lot of things on E-bay and I found it by looking through the sellers tools section of the web site. I saw this program called E-bay Turbo Lister, and read the description and thought what an excellent application that could save me a lot of time, it was a big file around 15mb, and being on a 56k modem was going to take about an hour to download. I didn't want to miss out on what this application could do, so I clicked for the download. What does it do? ******************** E-bay Turbo Lister is a program a program where you can build up your auction pages on your hard drive (just as you would through the web site) and then you upload them all to your account at once. Installation ************* Installation was very easy and was your usual...

My Bay

Advantages: tasty addition to stews and cassorole
Disadvantages: maybe to strong for your taste

...Bay is an everygreen herb which grows like a shrub, it can be grown in open spaces or in tubs. The flowers of the bay are yellow and it will flower in may. The best way to get a bay plant is to buy one from a garden centre for around 99p depending on the size. I also like to get my herbs from bootsales where you can pick them up from 25p so saves money. When your bay plant is well established in the pot re-plant it outside. It likes to be in a sunny but shaded place in the garden. They may die off in the winter but should throw new shoots during the following spring. Bay is a native to the east mediterranean but have been grown in europe for years. They are a very popular herb to grow in your herb garden as they have a good use in cookery. You can use the leaves dried or fresh. Bay leaves have a very strong aromatic...

Review of Bay

Nature at Bay

Advantages: Accessible, attractive, atmospheric
Disadvantages: Covers too small an area

...As you walk west towards the sunset along the beach at Le Crotoy, the rattle of shingle soon gives way to the soft crunch of seashells in the sand beneath your feet. Before long you are away from the town and the only other sound to be heard is from out in the estuary, a mixed chorus of gulls, geese and sandpipers. They rise and fall in flurries amid the creeks in the grey-green mud. Dusk descends, and a red navigation light flashes out to sea. When you turn to retrace your footsteps, a trail of luminescent dots discloses the habitations on the far side of the bay of the Somme. * Why go, and how? * Even the most enthusiastic advocates (like me) of overnight shopping/eating/drinking trips to France have to admit that the area around Calais and Boulogne does sometimes become a bit overrun with English visitors (like me...

Turbo Lister - Program Information - eBay.co.uk

Advantages: Saves time, Easy to use, More professional Listings
Disadvantages: None at all

...Hey All! *Updated* Around 4 years ago I began using eBay, as most of us know it can be a little annoying using the badly made HTML editor to design listings. (especially for some people who cant use html code) - which at the time I couldn't either. Anyway eBay sent me a letter containing a link to turbo lister and since then I have always used it! Amazing little seller tool! has many features and saves lots of time and was made to help big sellers and biginner sellers whom require a good listing to attract potential buyers. Some features include the following: - Colour Text - Borders - Grid format listings - Copy paste listings - Add free pictures to eBay listings - Listing Auto Start Times - Fee Calculations - Accound 'Safe' Login Box - Help Guide - Link to the Turbo Lister ' Forum ' (Friendly environment - Helpful...

Review of eBay Turbo Lister

beats e-bay handsdown

Advantages: quick and easy to sell your unwanted books and CDs
Disadvantages: can only list a limited variety of products

...Amazon marketplace is a great way to earn a bit of extra cash from any books, CDs or computer software you no longer require. Unlike e-bay, there is no charge for making the listing an Amazon only take a small commission. There's also an added benefit in that Amazon request payment from the buyer and then forward it into your bank account. This way you're guaranteed the payment won't bounce and you're protected against fraud. And, unlike e-bay, you don't need a credit card to sign up with Amazon. All payments are transferred to your bank account and commission is taken before the funds are transferred. ------------ joining ------------ You join the site using a secure server and I have to say it is relatively painless experience. Simply enter your name and address details and register a user name and password. You are now...

The Highs and Lows of eBay!

Advantages: Many Buyers, Sellers & Items, Bargains, Shop at home, Sell your stuff, Make Money!
Disadvantages: Time wasters, dishonest users, competition, Fees, Risks, Unjustified auction 'pulling'

...Start your own Online Business on eBay eBay is an online auction house, but more commonly referred to as an 'online marketplace' because many items can also be bought at a fixed price. eBay is one of the most visited websites on the Internet and can only be described as an online phenomenon, even being featured in blockbusters such as Men in Black, Transformers, etc. With hundreds of millions of items listed worldwide, and millions of items bought and sold daily, it's the behemoth of auction websites. I first signed up for eBay in 2002 and have since bought and sold hundreds of items on the site. I even achieved Power Seller status from all my selling for a while. The idea of eBay is that a seller lists an item for sale, either at a fixed price, or as an auction. With this in mind, the seller can sell off their unwanted...

A great alternative to eBay!

Advantages: Sell and buy at good prices. No listing fees or cheques to bank!
Disadvantages: High fees, minor recurring technical problems, some items not listed.

...There can't be many web users who haven't bought something from Amazon, or browsed their website at some time. In the past few years, Amazon have expanded from simply selling books and CDs into electrical goods and computer software. I was chatting to a friend about Amazon the other day, and was surprised to learn that he didn't know he could actually sell on Amazon, as well as buy from them... so I got my Ciao head on and decided to write a little intro. I've been selling on the site on-and-off for about 18 months, alongside normal eBay selling, so this op will probably have a bit of an 'angle' to it - i.e. a comparison of the Amazon Marketplace and eBay Buy It Now system, and the pros and cons of Amazon over its' main rival. I'll also approach each section from the perspective of buyers AND sellers. --> BUYING: HOW DOES IT WORK...

(e)Baying For Blood!

Advantages: A platform to sell items, Some bargains, Good choice!
Disadvantages: Useless Customer Service, No Seller Protection, Extortionate Fees.. I Could Go On!

...My feelings towards eBay are very mixed, as I have to admit, it was good to me for a while, and I enjoyed selling on it but I find it's just not worth it anymore. I shall explain more in detail about my experience and then touch on a few general observations/snippets of information. I first started on eBay in about 2004 with the intention of selling off some items of clothing that I did not wear anymore. This went well, although I think I could have got more for them had I started the auctions off at more than 99p, but as a new seller with no feedback, I thought it best to get a few positive feedbacks so that people trusted me as a seller. I know that I personally prefer to see that somebody has been selling legitimately and not ripping people off. This is not only human nature, but common sense too; I do hate the fact that some...

Excellent eBay

Advantages: VERY HANDY
Disadvantages: CAN BE SCAMMED

...Ebay is THE online market, which you can access via the internet. You can buy and sell things on eBay.You can bid for things or do a buy it now. EBay sells anything and everything from mobile phone chargers to holidays. Almost anybody can sell and buy things on eBay, all you need is to register online and make sure that you read the full terms and conditions to make sure that you fit the the criteria and that you are not doing anything wrong! Be careful! Although eBay is a very useful tool, some people do spoil it by using eBay for scaming you (for example. selling you the wrong thing or the thing that you bought, but in very bad condition ...),so it is important that you are careful and that you enquire about the thing you are buying, before bidding. Always check feed back! If you look at the persons feedback before...
