I really can't stand those Dumb pop up ads anymore on Bidville They are Very Annoying for the seller and the Buyer as well If you people feel the same way you should write Bidville Like I did this is what I wrote them. And if they Don't Change it soon I will leave them!!!
To whom it may concern, Now I know Bidville needs to advertise, But these advertisements Bidville is putting out on the top of the page is Really ridicules Because you can't even just pass them with out them opening up almost the whole screen disappears Because of these DUMB advertisements . And it's Not Just when I am selling, But also Buyers get the same response Now That's Very Annoying For the Buyer as well as the Seller. I would really like you to put them on the Bottom of the page Or Let People click on them if they want to read it. So this way I do not Have to close them up EVERY TIME I do something, I pay fees every month I should Not have to Deal with this very annoying problem. Plus if I were a shopper I would go some place else that's not so annoying to shop Thank You!~

When did they start using popups?

I haven't noticed any popups. i did notice that when a BV page comes up on RSD, only a few lines of the actual listing show-it's mostly the BV header and the ad at the top of the page...if I was paying to have those pages on RSD, I'd be complaining to BVCS!

I just turned my pop up blocker off and I wasn't able to get any pop ups over there. I don't mind ads on an auction site but pop ups are a real pain in the rear.

I'm Not sure what you would call it But it's the Type of ad as soon as your Mouse pointer passes the ad it Gets Big and almost takes half the page It did it to me all day yesterday. And it was Just under The button's were the browse, sell, search, my Bidville is. And as soon as i went to do something else and draged my Mouse Down that dumb ad would POP. Since I wrote the letter it seem to stop? I really doubt they stopped it Because of my letter. But it's not doing it this Morning

Oh, those mouseover ads. I hate those damn things. I thought Yahoo had the market cornered on those kind of ads.

I guess the secret is to place your cursor on the bid button on my auctions, not the advertising. Instead of activating the rollover add, you'll get a wonderful invoice from me.

If you need help finding the bid button, just email me. I'll be glad to talk you through it.. :D

Ok, moused over the top goggle ad on the front page and it opened to the top of the page covering the navigation buttons. Once opened it froze the rest of the page. Moving the mouse away and clicking elsewhere on the page wouldn't do anything so I had to close the browser to get away. Those things are great fun!
