I see you're new to Listia - you're gonna love it. I'm not here trying to tell you how to run your auction, just trying to help you out a little bit. I watched an auction yesterday for 4 Zumba DVD's with free shipping go for 26,299. When I first started Listia it took me forever to get that many credits and there were so many things I wanted. I guarantee that if you would use a USPS media mail envelope if you want the winner to pay for shipping you would see the bidding increase - if shipping was free you would see the bids take off like crazy. I would consider bidding and paying the media mail price (I think it's around $5-$6) because it's a flat rate to wherever you send it in the U.S. I would most definitely bid and bid big if it were free shipping. : / No one told me anything like this when I first started. : / This is a fantastic beginner auction which could potentially bring you lots of credits. I hope you do well on it. I'll watch it in case you might change the shipping terms and hopefully help you get a new Listia badge. If I can help you in any way just holler.
You were able to "update" it, if it were 24 hours before closing... but I think if you mention it here, it's enough and it's to better your auction and to keep within Listia's rules of sending dvd's by Listia's max charge. MEDIA will help you do this but remember, MEDIA, is required to be shipped by "package/box" NOT envelopes, if you ship by "envelope", usps will charge standard and it will be a lot more... Winner pays shipping afterwards anyways, preferably by paypal, do you accept paypal? See http://www.listia.com/support/topic/updating_listings?from=1 info on how you are allowed to update your shipping charges... I'm sure nobody here will dispute your decision of choosing MEDIA and I'm sure you'll get a LOT of bids but it's up to you... Thanks again for putting up such a GREAT item!!! I will be watching and definitely, be on "casteach" side on the bidding if you accept MEDIA shipping charges and take paypal =)
I know casteach... I'm with you too but she has deleted my posting asking about Media and she said yesss to it but has deleted all that, this is fishy... =(
I don't know what happened? I asked you if you could change to Media and you responded yesss... that's why i said "Yaaaay" above... I don't see your post now... i'm not sure if this is a glitch? or are you deleting my posts? Same thing happened to a previous post of mine, it disappeared... =( maybe it's my computer? =(
