When users log onto eBid’s home page they have the option to choose from several different countries that eBid operates in. Users just click on the flag of the country where they would like to do their auctions. They do not charge users for listing fees but charge a small final value fee when items are sold.
They operate in 18 different countries and currently have over 2 million auctions and over 9,000 categories. There are different subscription plans that users can sign up for and users can also join for free to check out what eBid is all about.
A feature that is unique to the online auction website experience is eBid’s Happy Hour Auctions. These auction bids start at £1.00 and runs from 4pm to 8pm every day. Users can see the featured status of all of these auctions on the top of the FrontPage and all search results and category listings are also included. The cost to the seller is a maximum of £4.00. These auctions are great because you can find great deals with the auctions that end quickly. There is also auctions called auto-extend auctions. These take place if the seller wants to extend the length of the auction by 60 seconds if there is a bid within the final 60 seconds of the auction. However this feature is only offered to certain paying users.
Another great feature that enhances the buyer-seller relationship is the Wanted feature. This lets the rest of the eBid community know what products buyers are eyeing. Through this the buyers and sellers can create a mutual relationship that works well together and helps to increase productivity. Some other features that eBid offers are eBid virtual stores, 60 minute auctions which have no reserve and end in just an hour, eBid communities in five different countries, BuyNow option to end auctions and sell products for a set price, escrow option through PPPay, member forums and my eBid. Not all of these features are offered to basic members but all members do have the option to upgrade and receive all of these great effective features.
Users will need to look into the different pricing plans and membership fees before making a decision because of the different options. It is important for users to understand each payment option so that they do not pay for something they don’t want or get charged for a fee they knew nothing about. However at the bronze level which is free, users are allowed to bid and buy products through the site without upgrading. So if you are ready to be part of the online auction experience come join eBid today!
