Makes you wonder if Bidville can handle expansion or not. And bidville is also acting like Ebay did when they tried to upgrade anything. LOL!!!
Think maybe Bidville is next on Ebay's purchase list?? Once they sell skype to google, they will have some extra spending money. |

| nope, still nothing, zilch, nada, the big 0. psssst, :? do you thing there servers are being over worked b/c of all the new people moving. :idea: How come there is no message board for Bidville? I know it used to be one and sometime, cat fights would start :roll: :roll: but at least you would have a place to go for questions and problems. I'll keep trying but I think I will continue to load blujay. Mannnn, I liked bidville, arrrgh :x |

| There are a lot of ex-Bidville sellers who really liked it. But it was kind of like living in a rent house...the neighbors fight every weekend, the plumbing is backed up, and the electric circuits don't support modern appliances. But when you ask the landlord to fix things, he raises the rent instead. You like the location and most of the neighbors, but the time comes when you have to think about your family and your finances, and move out....it's just not worth the aggravation anymore. |

| Oh, and when Bidville fully works, it is easily the best online auction site for user friendly enjoyment. Albeit it really needs about 6 new functions and about 5 tweaks. But site is very livable and easily could be #1 with lots of ownership involvement. It is an auction site that bows to no other, yep you heard that right. Been there and done it all, and really have seen all the 800 or so online auction sites since 1996 with 12yrs behind that. Yes, me knows :D |

Gotta agree veiwit, clearly the best when it's running right, and if there is news I hope it's positive. I think this site has great potential.

Hmmmm, why :?: didn't uBid auction off BidVille by using eBay Auction and start the opening Bid at $50,000
Duh. They are truly dense and it has shown for the last 22 Months of their so-called non-working ownership of Bidville. |

I'm noticing that as my current BV auctions end with no auto re-list, they are NOT going in my Ended Items list. That's ok for me because I have all descriptions/photos on my computer and backed up at Ripway.
But boy oh boy I feel sorry for sellers who still don't know BV is closing and haven't backed up copies of everything! :shock: |
