Its been erratic...I kinda like the site (but) some weird things going on over there. I finally gave up>>>I am going to give blujay a try. Sorta mad b/c I like it over there. As one said, you will get customers, (slowly) then you 've got to get your feedback up and such. Customers and sellers are nice too! DRATS! :x

I agree , you havent been able to post pictures to new auctions since yesterday , no one replies to e-mails and now, ecrater has just about caught up with them in number of listings, lets watch and see how soon they by-pass them. I am trying ioffer.com , i have been there about a week and had my first sell, so I will stick there for awhile.

It is getting frustrating. I think I've been able to load items maybe 2 days this week.

Buyers are still buying though as I am in the midst of my best month ever at Bidville.

I have boxes and boxes of cards to get listed. I don't care for the bulk loader because I can load items faster without it.

Oh well, I'll just keep scanning and when its running right I'll have a ton ready to list.

I had 21 auctions closed with sellers, and could relist them [fabrics] could not list them with photos, but went in and took out the it will have photos and all the auctions listed just fine 21 of them...
So it's all in this photo thing they can't figure out.
At least these relists will have the camera icon.
New items will just wait for all this dust to settle and then get them listed.
At least sales happen and no problems that way.
Good month for me too.

Morning all. Just tried this A.M. to upload some store items with the loader, still not working (server is down or internet connect error message) it's got to be the server my connect it fine. Joan, will give your suggestion a try later in the day. I'll add some auction items with no gallery picture and see if it lists. Glad to see your still getting sales that's encouraging. :D Frank

The message says to contact system administator. Click on "contact us" and it says the same thing. This is the first time since I've been at BV that you couldn't even email them. I doubt anything will be repaired over the weekend. I'm very discouraged and dissappointed. Those of you that have been there forever...do you recall not being able to email customer service? Or is this an actual first.

No, you've always been able to contact them, you just didn't always get answers.
