Looks like a good idea. Its going to be hard to compete with ebay
though. I think their monopoly is here to stay.

This is getting very close to spam, on-topic or not.

I have to say, I've never missed out on much for a Land Rover on ebay. I
 bid £60 on an auto gearbox and missed it by £90. Next day I bid £90 on
one, and missed that one by £60. Next day I bid on one and put £130 in
as my bid - won it for £4.99.

I wish the chap with the Landy auction site the best of luck, but I'm
not a fan of spam, and he does seem to be going a bit over the top, so
any more ads in 'ere and he'll be in the k/f.

Hi Pete

Valid point, But it seems these days the line between being classed as
spam and trying to promote a business may be of interest of like
minded individuals is getting narrower.

I did not intend these posts to be classed as spam not like (china
crap shoes or handbags) as seen in topic list! but to be informative
and to make aware of our new site and services. its had to compete in
a market with out some sort of promotion either paid or by word of
mouth

After all we are all land rover  fans here and thought you may of
approved but it seems not.

as your group is now aware of our site we will keep posts to a minimum
so not to spam your group

regards

Martin

When I first saw your URL it occurred to me that this could be a Good
Thing for buyers and conversely a Bad Thing for sellers, since there
would in theory be fewer people bidding on a given item thus leading to
the likelihood of it selling for a lower price. Then it occurred to me
that it would be likely to be a Bad Thing for honest buyers and
conversely a Good Thing for dishonest sellers because while Ebays
protection for buyers who dont get their goods is poor, its definitely
better than nothing which is what you appear to get here.
I think I'd stick with Ebay then ;o)

Buyer protection

As most items on our website are paid for using pay pal  payment
gateway is done off site  via pay pal  secure server and are covered
by Pay pals own buyer protection scheme.

all members details are held and must be email verified and now pay
pal/ credit card verified to confirm their identity before the can
list an item for sale.

as with any auction the contract is between the the vendor and the
bidder/purchaser and we would assist in any dispute by providing any
information to help resolve the matter. in accordance with the data
protection act.

Re:- there would in theory be fewer people bidding on a given item
thus leading to
the likelihood of it selling for a lower price.

this can happen on ebay its called the luck of the draw  and is the
same with any auction ,thats why we post in these groups and various
forums to help promote our website

However  as a new site  with an increasing membership you would be
just a likely to sell your item on landybitz as anywhere else, but the
main difference is that it wont cost you as much to do it..

At the end of the day if you are happy paying through the nose for the
opportunity of trying to sell on ebay thats your choice,but most of
our members agree that you should be able to sell an item without
paying most of the money you get for the sale back to the auction
site.

thats the concept of landybitz.com   lower fees and a  land rover
auction site run by land rover people  for land rover people

Given the association between Ebay and PP I'd venture that PP would
give their maximum assistance to their 'own' customers. Since that
protection is often thought to be useless, it stands to reason that the
version they offer to customers through you would be worse than useless.

I've no idea who you guys are and for all I know you're lovely people,
but I think its fair to point out that ebay 'used' to say just the same
thing. And then they got a customer base. And then they bent their
customers over and slipped them one. Genuine altruism is rare, even
within the LR community :o)

Most people selling anything here, even just private individuals, have had
the courtesy to post a request to the group first asking if this is OK.  We
all chime in and say go ahead.  Just jumping in with a post advertising your
website was poor etiquette and you can't blame people for assuming you are
something of a spammer and kfing you.  Yes, your post is on-topic, but you
risk alienating your potential customers by your approach.  I've got you
down as a spammer now, whatever you do.

And please learn to use a sig-sep.
