Since so many fine sellers are leaving eBay, due to poor managment, unfair policies and fee increases, do you ever wonder if there are alternatives??



Yes - there are many, and Onlineauction.com is the best bang for your buck.



Check out this feature on Youtube!









Occasionally people will remark in the chat rooms that they feel that there are not enough sales, or not enough "activity" and wonder if they should look elsewhere.



Well, I went to 5 other online auction/fixed price sales sites and checked their chat rooms. Many were saying the same things, (and I do have to remark that on any site it was a minority)



so I copied a few of the comments on competitor sites to OLA.com:






…Hang in there!



…here 0 for 0 dollars..



Man i hope this site works and stuff starts selling here like i said i am sick and tired of the other side.!!



In order to make it work here, you have to want to make it work here. Takes a lot of hard work and determination if you want your business to zing. Have you done your google feed? Have you hit the master promotion list? Above all make sure you list your items to google feed.



is anyone REALLY selling anything on here?



Havent sold a darn thing on here, not ONE single item since being here!



is there a ton of sellers here and no buyers..



No sales for me either.



I’m promoting, putting items on sale, giving away freebies.. Only been here 2 weeks—no sales yet.



We have sold 15 items but have seen traffic falling. ***** views seem to be the same but product views are down to almost nothing…



So Far I have had alot of lookers but no sales.



Google dropped my feed!



I joined ** with high hopes of selling at least something. I paid 10.00 up front to cover FVF on anything I sold. I did 1 bold feature, which cost me .50 and now have a balance of 9.50. ** is not doing anything for me, as I've made no sales & would like to nuke everything & close up shop, so I can best spend my time on sites that are getting sales.



I am getting really discouraged.



Nothing for me... even at 75% off prices.....



It's one of the "glitches" in the new system..



The final straw was that I tried to contact **** directly to let them know what I thought of their feedback system, and I couldn't do that with any satisfaction, either. They are obviously not interested. Well, lack of interest goes both ways. No more **** for me!



Sorry to be the only one to leave a negative on this topic but I am very disappointed in this site. I have been here since June 1, 2008 and have sold a grand total of 9 items..



I recently opened mine a month or so ago and Zip nothing nada.






I left out the names of the sites and the sellers names - that just wouldn't be nice. This is just to point out although it may seem slow, there are more venues - eBay doesn't have the monopoly that it did. Everyone just needs to be patient, promote their sites as much as possible and keep being positive.



And, go to Onlineauction.com!! ... it's NOT eBay...cuz it's BETTER!
