I opened a booth last fall and immediately sold several items to a variety of people. Then suddenly nothing. There have been no sales since November. I have been selling steadily on ebay and have gotten views here, but no sales.I am starting to really wonder if something is wrong with my booth. It is possible to purchase items here?
I have been selling lots of Barbie sweaters, doll slippers, hankies, doilies and a variety of other items on ebay – just nothing here. HELP!!

Just checking a couple of your items, I see you have them listed higher here on bonanza than you do ebay. For [URL removed] A knit doll dress, the same one you have on ebay is $1.50 & $1 shipping….Here on bonanza you have it for $3 free shipping…So it is .50 higher on bonanza, so why would someone buy it from bonanza if they can get it for .50 less on ebay? If i list the same items on ebay, i always list them for just a bit less on bonanza so the buyer, if they do want to comparison shop, will see its less on bonanza, and will purchase here.

I am not doing well here neither Susansweaters. I sell on other venues and do well selling the same kind of items. Also have the 19% advertising level that has done nothing for me.
I don’t really agree with Misskeech though, I don’t think 50 cents is a deal breaker at such a low price point for your items, it should not be an issue.
I do believe the site does not function well though and have found many glitches in it. I am betting that is what the problem is.

On Bonanza several months, put on items that should sell. Not one sell, but $25 a month charges. I come on and asks me to do more and more things, now it is a slide show. I’m not interested in spending more time for nothing. Clear Images and Jewels
I’m also not going to give items away then use my $ to mail items. Free Shipping is not free for the seller, unless you are in a country where the US tax payers pay for it.
