A good friend wants to start selling her calendars on Ebay. She's signed up there. Took a look at the listing form(s) and panicked. I've been singing the praises of Vendio's listing form.
Is there a way for her to see the actual listing page without signing up to sell through Vendio? I don't see an indication anywhere, and I can't seem to copy and paste the blank page. Would she need to sign up as a Vendio user before she could even see the listing page? Etc.

Vendio has a two week trial offer. Have her sign on for that and list a couple of items and get the feel of it. Be sure to instruct her on setting her defaults first. That takes all the pain out of listing.

Road - unless your friend is Pamela Anderson and the Caledars are all nude shots tell her not to get her hopes up. I designed a calendar for some girls a couple years ago who tried to use Ebay as a marketing outlet for them. They failed miserably. It's just not the market and these were some pretty girls (once I was finished retouching all of their photos that is ) Current, non celebrity calendars are basically impulse type items, you buy it because someone you know was selling it or you walked past it and thought it was cute, sexy, intriquing, etc., but they are generally not something that people go searching ebay for.

If it's really "common" sense, why do so few people actually have it?

Lucy...We've been drooling over that storm all day, but it just doesn't want to come this side of I-5. Here's what's coming your way in just a few more minutes:

Thanks, guys! I appreciate your help here.
Lucy and Sparkz, et al: Rain is predicted for us tomorrow and more or less through the weekend. Verrrry welcome, again, although rain does get old after a couple of days, doesn't it?! Our snow has melted and we've had bright sunshine for 3 days.
My friend's calendar is sort of in the "women's studies" area, in that it features portraits of women around the world, just head shots, and inspirational thoughts. I've cautioned her not to expect much. There's a chance for her to sell through one of those Ebay selling/shipping places in her town. I suggested she give it a try with one or two and see how it goes. That could get her feet wet. Right now she's puzzled over where to list them on Ebay. We shall see, I suppose. But she's never sold on Ebay, and you all know how hard it is to get into it, with all the options.
So. . . thank you again for your help. I love you guys!

Roadsmith...This storm is spinning around in circles on the coast, soaking Sanmar and Lucy. It's supposed to move south this weekend, come ashore in L.A., and proceed to the desert to knock on your door. NWS says it's gonna dump a foot of snow in your yard. Get those batteries charged, you will be losing power again by Saturday night

Thanks, Sparkz. I didn't realize it would be that strong a storm. We'll be prepared. And we'd love to have more snow up here.
