Does anyone here sell on Ebid? Do you think its better to sell products on there than on Ebay? Less competition on Ebid but less potential customers as well. A lot of the products im selling are also on Ebay but don't really seem to be on Ebid.........

To many sellers not enough buyers

very true
I put the same item up on both sites
got around 100 hits on ebay and only
10-20 on ebid

Sold the item on ebay mainly beacause no-one bid for it on ebid
Hope this info helps

You will have more hits on Ebay. I found that once I received seller feedback on Ebid and gained trust, it did help pick things up a bit. Ebay will still give you more traffic though.

Ebid would possible be decent for a side project for you. You just need to build seller trust first, but as mentioned from everyone else, Ebay has the market cornered in traffic to you listing.

I've tried ebid very poor traffic volume never sold a single item and all the scammers that are kicked off eBay flock their.

I've tried virtually all the auction sites out there and Ebay still pulls in the best results..

You need to look at it from a customers perspective. If you were a customer why would you visit eBid or Tazbar instead of eBay? You wouldn't. So the majority of the general public don't!
