I actually have most of my items on 3 sites and some of the same on the bay - don't put half of what I have there since fees are too high! I haven't had any problem doing this so far. Glad it's worked out for you but I don't think that most people will think you're items fake just because they are on 2 sites...Most online auction shoppers know that sellers advertise in a variety of places..

Leeleerae - don't get discouraged! I've done 3 bonanzas with no sales but have had many sales since signing up in Oct...My sales have been better there than on ebay recently ...Although, I don't list much on ebay anymore but even when I did - I'm still seeing more sales on Bonanzle...Just stick with it and be patient...Afterall, you don't have anything to lose since it's free!

I just signed up with Bonanzle today... I was so shocked by how friendly the other sellers were!! I had many people come and leave me welcoming messages.. it seems like a great place. I'm glad I joined!

sooo I purchased something from Bonanzle last week (perhaps last Monday). The seller told me she was going to send it out right away, according to her eBay feedback, seems everything is good. But my question is, if the item never comes, can I file some kind of dispute? How does that work with Bonanzle? Thanks!

Yes, you can file an INR dispute (item not received) with PP. Has the seller notified you of a tracking # or that she has even shipped?

I haven't heard from her since last Friday, I mean I know that Monday was a holiday, but she said it would be sent USPS Priority. And looking at her location, she's only 2 states away from me. She has not provided me with a tracking # or even let me know that the package has been shipped. Although she did tell me that she would let me know when she ships the item out. I'm aware that she told me that she would mail it out Friday morning. Shouldn't it be here already? Maybe I'm getting impatient?

Per PP, seller has 7 days to ship. Email the seller ONE MORE TIME and request a tracking #. On day 8, if you have no response and no package, file an INR dispute w/ PP. Escalate to a claim. DO NOT close the dispute/claim until you have received the item.
Lord, these NON-COMMUNICATIVE sellers make me MAD!

I just want to say that I made my first sale on Bonanzle, the buyer (in Japan) offered me full price, paid this morning and I just shipped today. Very cool!

I was starting to get discouraged, but everyone here on tPF was so positive about it that I just hung in there. Now hoping for more sales.

Also, Bonanzle is so responsive to email. I had several questions concerning the sale and they responded so quickly......such a difference from eBay.

No Cute · Feb 19th, 2009, 07:43 PM

I emailed Mark and got a reply right away about trading. He said there is no official mechanism, but that he was fine with trading but would appreciate the transaction through Bonanzle. The other seller and I exchanged identical amounts, shipped the bags, and our trade is completed as soon as the post office delivers the second bag. Very cool, and Bonanzle approved. I'm very happy over there.

Same thing happened to me! It was also wonderful to only pay $10 for fees!

lovelygarments · Feb 20th, 2009, 07:28 AM

Can someone here please help me with posting more photos on my Bonanzle listings? How do I do it? I know other PF members have multiple photos, and I know there must be an easy way to do this. When I looked at the Bonanzle help section, I saw a solution, but I didn't understand it.

How are PF members adding extra photos inside their listings?

TIA!

kristinmcd · Feb 20th, 2009, 07:42 AM

Use a program like www.photobucket.com and paste the pics right into the ad.

HTH!

ladyisobel · Feb 20th, 2009, 07:43 AM

i just listed my first item, it felt weird not being on ebay, but seeing as ebay would have charged me £40 i thought i'd try bonanzle !
lovelygarments, when i put the first 4 pics up i just clicked on add another picture and kept adding more.

ladyisobel · Feb 20th, 2009, 07:56 AM

Hmm, now i'm confused, only 5 of the pics i added are showing up in the listing, where are the others ?
