I just got a working for a company www.bizlgo.com that is dedicated to allowing individuals to big companies buy and sell products abroad. There are specialized transport companies that usually have specific routes and take care of the bureaucracy as well as offering better transport prices than regular shipping methods. We incorporated these companies into the site making buyer feel more comfortable buying from abroad MSG me if you want to be notified when we are online - it should be within a couple of weeks.

It's free to list products and the maximum fee for a successful transaction is 3.5% it gets cheaper as the value of an order goes up. Several products from may be included in a single order.

Bizglo is an alternative to ebay as you can buy and sell products but it doesn't work the same way. There is no auction - just click to buy.

It is true, ebay has a lot of problems, try this auctions site, easymud.com

Hi,

I have been selling on eBay for over 7 years and have found that it was a lot better selling on eBay 7 years ago than right now. There were no rules on what to sell and how many to sell, but now there is.

One thing that I want to throw out there is eBay makes money from people listing and completing transactions, and therefore it is not eBay's fault entirely that they pull auctions or suspend account. eBay is under pressure from other companies to remove listings, and so eBay complies to avoid getting sued.

Anyways, over my past experiences, I have put together an eBook that, in a nutshell, puts you 1 step ahead of eBay. This eBook can teach you how to sell on eBay without any worries of getting suspended or limited. It teaches you all the secrets of eBay and Paypal so that you can be aware of how they operate. I used to make over 10K a month back in 2002, but after all their new laws, I was unable to even make 1K. With this book, you can start making the money you used to make before getting suspended. Please go http://www.killitonebay.com if you are interested. I offer a 100% money back guarantee, but I am not worried about people returning this eBook, because it really works. If you have any questions, feel free to email me at: ="mailto:killitonebay@gmail.com">killitonebay@gmail.com

Most of what has been said about eBay is generally true. But as horrible or as terrible as eBay may seem (or is) to sellers, you can't deny it they are still number one when it comes to getting the best traffic rating!

Alternatives? There are quite a handful of sites that can be a great alternative to eBay, there's Bonanzle, eCrater, eBid, AtomicMall, GumTree, Auctiva to name a few but still none of these sites can beat the traffic that flocks to eBay. Please don't get me wrong I'm not pro or anti eBay but I'm just sharing statistics as they are.

You can also use eBay to drive traffic to your listings on other auction sites or maybe even to your own website especially if you are still starting out. Just maintain a few listings on eBay and try to avoid violating any of their rules and policies to avoid scrutiny.

Here's something that may help you in choosing your alternative auction site:

Thanks John!

Yeah, starting out small usually pays off big time. It also allows you to start with a smaller capital and gives you the opportunity to learn the needed lessons to start facing off established sellers. Besides everybody has got to start somewhere.
