Well as of midnight last night the votes are in on the best e-bay alternative site, now to wait until January 28,2009 for the winner to be announced. This will be a day to remember for Bonanzle should we be the winner. More exciting than making it on the PSU board! Bonanzle is still in 5th place!
Seriously if your nerves or your profits are at the end, consider opening a Bonanzle booth. You have nothing to lose. There are no booth fees, no listing fees and the final value fees are not much.
The listing time is so quick you can even crop and rotate your 4 pictures while listing. The picture thingy is something in it self. Just love it.
You can take the kind of payments that you see fit to take. Google Checkout, Cash, Checks, Money Orders and of course PayPal. Here's a plus unlike some sites, all cash transactions have no final value fees.
There is real time chat in your Bonanzle booth and you can text someone that is on line in real time. The chat can be a place to meet a buyer or seller to ask or answer questions. I love this feature, have made many sales while using it.
Bonanzle has even set up so that you are able as an individual seller to upload your items to Google with a Google feed. Bill has set up easy step by step instructions with screen shots to follow.
The Bonanzle community if helpful and a friendly one. If you have questions all you have to do is go to the boards and ask. Within minutes of posting a question you will have an answer. If you have to contact support for any reason, a real person with a real response will answer you.
Do yourself and your business a favor. Come on over to Bonanzle and give it a try.
Bonanzle has been the most prosperous alternative market for me to date. The real "open communication" model fits my business perfectly.
ReplyDeleteI, too, have found the booth chat invaluable as a customer service tool.
