I just signed up for BIDVILLE (www.bidville.com) which is another auction site and MUCH CHEAPER than ePay. Like they say, 2 heads are better than 1; so I really like having 2 auction websites to sell and buy. Your comments are welcome!

It appears you have not been reading the other auctions boards or you wouldn't have signed up for bidville. Unless you don't sell items of real value. If you sell crappy sports cards, then bidville is for you. That is the place for crap.

I think you just wasted your mandatory $5 fee to sell there. You'll be lucky to even make a single sale.

I tried bidville ages ago with no luck at all. Keep us informed how you do.

There is a reason it is much cheaper than e-bay. You won't sell a thing but I do wish you well

Yes, thanks for the comments. So you get what you pay for eh? I don't mind giving $5 to ePay's competition and I don't expect instant success. But I really wish I had some "crappy" Stone Cold Steve Austin memorabilia to sell in BIDVILLE. Or maybe some empty cans of Crappy Stone Cold Beer And does anyone know how far BIDVILLE is to SMALLVILLE. I need to talk to Superboy!

Whoa there skippy! Before you make too much fun of wrestling merch I have a Rey Misterio Jr figure currently going for $100 (started yesterday) and a month ago closed a Japanese wrestling figure at $214. There really is a market for everything and even pro wrestling has some genuine collectibles. Dusty Rhodes Hasbros that the stores coudn't give away when they came out are now valued at $300+ MOC.

It's been years since I was on bidville. The only way I ever really sold anything was to advertise it on the front page for $5 (cost 50 cents though with the discounts) and even then it was junk, and only got one bid...
Beware of this company, I canceled ages ago, and one day out of the blue they charged my credit card for the monthly premium account that I used to have. I got rid of the charge quickly, but at least a year had passed since I quit.

Well since the rasslin talk has started, I sold a OLD hulk hogan gym bag for $200 and the guy says he got a deal. Probably robbed me blind but I made a pretty good percentage from that $1.50 I paid for it at a garage sale. !!

I know ABDULLAH has/had a restaurant in Atlanta. In addition, he offers people franchises of his restaurant. So it proves that if you know how to use a fork, you might know how to start a restaurant business.

Back on topic...
I listed items on BidVille back when Yahoo
auctions started charging fees. I ended up
going to eBay because BidVille was DEADVILLE.
I made about 10 sales, but listed HUNDREDS.
They are now charging fees too? Hehe.
Good luck!
