Well, I start at iOffer a couple months, and got only one item purchased by one of my old customer who I sent her iOffer invitation. And that seems the last activity since last month. The buyer never comes back even for leaving me a feedback :(

Not many sales on Ioffer to date for many months since opened and a couple of those were no pays. However, I plan to stay there with many items while expanding to other sites as many items have multiples on hand.

I get more sales now on eBay and I haven't really worked on either site in the last month. Gotten lazy lol. But I expect more sales as I ramp things up again from my break.

I typically get about 10 sales a week on iOffer on each account I have there.

Good Luck.

I get surges on Ioffer. Sometimes it goes dead but then it picks up again and the NPB's come back to drive me crazy.

I don't get to many NPB's there anymore. Once in awhile now. I do get regular sales whereas 6 months ago the sales were maybe once every two weeks.

I really like what they are doing to the site and they have a 33 million item count now. Watch out Ebay. Ebay only had 59 mil count way back when according to the PSU item counter. I think it was back in 2005 or 6.

I'm permanent on Ioffer now. Ain't goin anywhere else. I've tried alot of other sites and just got tired of dealing with the false promises and hype to end up wasting my time with nothing.

I have a store on USIFF also but the owner doesn't hype the site with false statements of glorious sales so I support USIFF. The owner Rene is a good site manager so maybe if you guys have a couple of extra items you can start a store on USIFF. It's all "Free". He's working on the site and writes his own site code so changes take along time but you won't get any hype or false promises.

I got my first sale right after I first started to list. After that it was many months until I started to do sale regularly.

RSS feed your Ioffer store items to Google Base. Ioffer sets up the files for you: http://www.ioffer.com/info/googlebase

Transfer any feedback from Ebay to Ioffer. Feedback always helps even if you have to sign up for Repatoo.

Start advertising your Ioffer store heavily. Most auction site sellers don't do this and that's their mistake. Don't depend on the auction site to bring visitors into your item pages. You gotta go on the net and get your own exposure for your items.

A good place to start advertising your Ioffer store items is Explorz. Email Suzanne.

Send me a PM if you want to do some free advertising. I advertise my Ioffer, Ebay and USiFF store. I know some spots to get you started.

Getting sales and exposure is tough.

Sometimes I can go a few weeks without doing sales on Ioffer. Then I get hit with a few weeks of steady sales.

Ioffers listings are climbing at an incredible rate leaving the buyer traffic in its dust so to speak. I couldn't even guess at the exposure rate on Ioffer right now. Lets say a year ago the exposure rate was around 1 visitor for every two items listed but now a wild guess would be 1 visitor for every 1000 items listed. The traffic catching up with the listing count may take a long time.

Didn't go on ioffer over a month, just took a peak and I see that absolutely nothing changed whatsoever:

Fakes all the way.

Lots of fakes indeed; that's always bothered me..but there are legitimate sellers there. To say otherwise is irresponsible.

There's fakes on all the sites. This is done by dropshippers and as long as the dropshippers get the fakes from a legitamate dealer it's going overboard attacking Ioffer for something they can't stop. There's fakes on Ebay, Overstock but the fakes are abundant on Ioffer because they have traffic and there's no listing fees.

Lots of changes have happened at Ioffer. Everyone was attacking Ebay (and they still are) and now that a new site is immerging with no listing fees and a decent amount of traffic the attacks are shifting towards Ioffer.

I'm very pleased that there is another site that's coming up to chanllenge Ebay. Overstock has tons of traffic but they are just auction oriented and if they installed stores Overstock would just start charging Ebay type fees. At least Ioffer only charges a backend FVF and I myself am hoping they make it up to the Ebay, Overstock traffic level.

I'm not saying anything about Ecrater because I did my research on them and know why are doing as well as they are doing.

P.S. If you don't know it I'll tell you. Lots of people purchase the fakes. Especially the fake designer clothes. True!

You know the reason I don't use Ioffer?

They include shipping on the FVF.
