eBay

Never fails, I get a promo and can't use it because of eBay's glitches. I input a price, ebay takes it out when I click "continue" and I get a red message, I missed filling in the price. So... I do it again... and the same thing happens. So I save, then re-open my draft and try again. Now it takes out payment method. Can't click on "Pay Pal" so I save it again as a draft. Then reopen it and click on Pay Pal. So it takes my clicking on Pay Pal...next, I save it (remember this is the only way I can list an item). So I must reopen my draft AGAIN and click on "continue" then finally, I get to list. All in all, one hour has elapsed from my preparing my item, photographing it, filling out the eBay form and listing it. And eBay wonders why I would never recommend selling on eBay... FIX YOUR **bleep** GLITCHES!

Sheeeeeeeesh!

It isn't for everyone, but I have far fewer problems using Seller Source Book to launch my listings. They are very reliable and well worth the cost. Their customer service is absolutely wonderful and their site is not full of glitches like eBay. I can only remember one time they had a technical problem with their site and it was fixed within hours. They also notified sellers IMMEDIATELY letting them know there was an issue.

I wish eBay would give the kind of service that SSB does.

They only allow 500 Megs for pictures. Do you happen to know what happens if you go over and what they charge?

I remember reading somewhere that there is an additional charge if you go over that amount. I can't remember how much it was.

Each account includes 500 MB of image hosting. According to SSB, if each photo you uploaded was 50 KB in size that would equal approximately 10,000 photos.

I presently have 2096 images hosted there and have 402.82 MB of space left (80%). I don't ever anticipate running out of space myself.
