I just opened a booth there, still figuring out what to put in it, but curious as to actual sales. I had a store at PlunderHere but can't even get into their site, have had problems with that site anyway so it's just as well.
Just looking to see if people are actually selling there, as opposed to just listing there on Bonanzle, LOL!

For me sales are good at Bonanzle. I do not offer Hand Crafted items used clothing or overpriced Walmart items.
I have a True Variety and that seems to be what people are looking for. |

Cool! I design t-shirts, mugs and stuff - my own designs. Think Bonanzle might be a good choice for me? I was on Ebay for years, but sales were so bad I just gave it up completely back in January.
Thanks for replying!

There are a few sellers on Bonanzle now that do the same thing as you. From what I understand they are doing well.
Competition is good for business. Come on over and see what happens. |

I'll do just that! Am working on more designs tonight, will post some items tomorrow and let you know when things are ready, I could use any feedback current Bonanzlers have to offer.  |

Hey Erin, nice to see you again after lo these many months/years, LOL!!!
Used to be on Ebay and then was on Plunderhere - had no sales on Plunderhere and Ebay took all my money, LOL! Figured I'd try a different place and see how it goes.
Glad you're still "out here" and hope you're doing great on those other sites.

I think bonanzle has potential, handmade/created things do sell there, "everything but the ordinary"
You might want to check artfire and etsy. Etsy being the biggest place for handmade / art.
artfire has a low monthly fee or you can list 10 things for free. |

I have heard that some do really well on Bonanzle. I didn't- I gave it several months- and after only ONE $3.69 sale- decided it wasn't worth my time and effort.
I find- on Bonanzle it is hard to contact sellers- When I go in to make a purchase- it comes up MAKE AN OFFER?? Hard to find 'members' .. it just wasn't for me.
The WORST selling site I have encountered HAS to be Ebid !! I won't even go INTO all the details of the listing problems and difficulty in listing there- and I paid $49.99 to become a LIFETIME member !! LOL- They can keep my $49.99 (write that off as a loss)
The three sites that I have stuck with- are Etsy- Ebay- and Ola.
Of course NONE compares to the traffic going through Ebay- and the sales- My profits are low on Ebay- but still a profit- MOST of the time (not always) Ebay just got too big for their britches..... and BEST MATCH is the absolutely WORST thing they EVER came up with ! |

I signed up for Bonanzle in November but didn't get serious listing until February. I've sold 22 items for close to $1500 since then. Several of these sales have come from organic search so I am getting good rankings on Google.
I am doing a better on my site but it has been around for several years
I still sell some items on eBay but I am moving most away from there. Oh yea I am a power seller there.
By the way Bonanzle has recently improved there checkout to make it much more user friendly. That's one thing I like that they do listen and improve the site as needed. Not just promise and never do. |

I really like Bonanzle.
Sales are trickling in for me, around 30 sales since the last week of January. Most of those are more recent and are coming in from Google search.
I still have a lot of listings I need to add attributes to so they'll rank higher (or at all) in searches
The site is easy to list on and navigate for me.
Good luck! |

I would like to see Bonanzle add a section for attributes similar to what eCrater and BISI have...that would certainly make placing attributes in each add much easier.
Congrats on the sales!  |

Thank you!
I've not been on the other sites to see how theirs are added.
I try to sit here and do a few at a time until my head is ready to explode and move on to something else.  |
