ep7 Brainstorming Bonanzle show notes - predictions and resolutions for 2009
If your new here, these show notes are the chat archive from episode 1 of Brainstorming Bonanzle, an online radio show which you can listen to right here.
I like to think of these show notes as evolving directory of the movers and shakers on Bonanzle, what they're experts in, and what they're talking about.
Scroll the conversation as it surrounds the companion audio podcast. While to the untrained eye, this can look like gibberish, if you know what you looking for, it's extremely relevant content to the subject at had.
These notes serve several purposes:
Each episode can be listened to in the player right here on this site, or found at http://www.talkshoe.com/talkshoe/web/tscmd/tc/31369
By the way, if you visit us at that link, please consider following and rating the show. Thanks

[8:30:26 PM ShesMrsWright> My goal for Waggin Tails & Wet Noses for 2009 is to continue to expand our product line
[8:30:44 PM Guest 4> could be dangerous to become to narrow in this economy
[8:31:01 PM Guest 4> right on
[8:31:03 PM Renagade> might even do a second venue…or a second booth…which would be better?
[8:31:04 PM vintagegoodness> another good one, don’t they call that the long tail approach ShesMrsWright?
[8:31:19 PM ibbysjewels> trying to diversify
[8:31:31 PM vintagegoodness> there is a great video from ColderIce about the ebay alternative venues, I highly recommend everyone watch it
[8:31:40 PM Guest 4> sales are like stocks have to diversify as much as possible
[8:31:45 PM vintagegoodness> http://thevintagelist.blogspot.com/2008/12/comparing-ebay-alternatives-video-from.html
[8:31:45 PM Renagade> I have made many sales to non sellers!
[8:31:52 PM vintagegoodness> i posted it on my blog
[8:31:56 PM oldsaltsailor> Google base is bringing 90% of my buyers
[8:32:07 PM vintagegoodness> and then did a traffic comparison of the sites where you can sell vintage and antiques
[8:32:13 PM vintagegoodness> it has me thinking for sure
[8:32:34 PM] PetraZee411 has hung up
[8:32:35 PM Renagade> read blog..still have to watch video
[8:32:45 PM Guest 4> John & Wally if Bonanzle wants to attract more buyers they have to work on attracting the merch people are looking for online
[8:33:06 PM attheboutique> but they are learning, and buyers are googling for what they want, get your items uploaded to google base, promotion 101
[8:33:15 PM vintagegoodness> one of my predictions is that Bonanzle’s affiliate program will start bringing more buyer traffic
[8:33:36 PM Renagade> Not really Walt…most of my sales happen when I was offline
[8:33:41 PM ebay & Beyond> It took eBay 10 years to get the traction they have, for the 1st 5 years eBay did not advertise, it was all word of mouth
[8:33:50 PM] Guest 9 is logged into the chat
[8:34:01 PM attheboutique> well said, Dave
[8:34:06 PM Guest 4> google base works for more than just bonanzle. Ebay worked because it was a destination. How was that created? Nobody knows about the great…
[8:34:15 PM Guest 4> features of Bonanzle until the get there
[8:34:16 PM BrightestBlessings> very well said Dave!
[8:34:21 PM Guest 4> you have to get them their first
[8:34:34 PM vintagegoodness> right Guest 4 gotta get them to the site and looking around
[8:34:52 PM Renagade> It is up to YOU guest 4 to help drive the traffic
[8:35:12 PM attheboutique> exactly, and taking ownership of our business, decide your market, and target it, then get it. There are many tools on B that can be used, then off B
[8:35:16 PM attheboutique> is essential
[8:35:20 PM Renagade> Bonanzle is like having your own site within a big site
[8:35:21 PM Guest 4> yes and the cool things Bonanzle offer is not what brings buyers to the sight. Hopefully it would be what would let them keep users there
[8:35:42 PM attheboutique> very good point, get them there, the site keeps them there
[8:35:46 PM Renagade> exactly!
[8:36:00 PM Guest 4> So what gets them there?

[8:36:02 PM JohnZee4PetraZee411> Part of the problem is not knowing the potential Bonanzle offers
[8:36:09 PM Guest 4> I agree
[8:36:12 PM vintagegoodness> hopefully if there are enough sellers on the site that work on driving buyers, the buyer traffic will keep growing
[8:36:13 PM Renagade> YOU!

[8:36:34 PM Guest 4> But a lot of very serious online sellers are not taking bonanzle seriously because
[8:36:38 PM JohnZee4PetraZee411> I’m off the phone
[8:36:58 PM vintagegoodness> guest4 because its new

[8:37:15 PM vintagegoodness> they dont think it is worth investing in yet
[8:37:31 PM JohnZee4PetraZee411> Ok…but I’ve been missing thte contacts
[8:37:31 PM Guest 4> Retail stats. Two out of 4 shoppers who come to a B&M and find nothing that interests them do not come back.
[8:37:32 PM vintagegoodness> that is part of the point of view of the ColderIce video
[8:37:47 PM Guest 4> No not because they are new
[8:37:57 PM vintagegoodness> why then?

[8:38:22 PM vintagegoodness> hehe
[8:38:31 PM attheboutique> well shucks, don’t need no body scrub or incense???
[8:38:49 PM Guest 4> Because they do not offer what serious sellers are looking for.
[8:38:58 PM JohnZee4PetraZee411> Can you guys list these forums that have all this info?
[8:38:58 PM vintagegoodness> the buyer traffic?
[8:39:03 PM attheboutique> define serious seller
[8:39:04 PM Renagade> Like what?
[8:39:16 PM vintagegoodness> not enough buyer traffic because it is a new site
[8:39:18 PM vintagegoodness> i mean
[8:39:23 PM Guest 4> no.
[8:39:32 PM vintagegoodness> what is missing then?
[8:40:00 PM Guest 4> Ebay did not have a huge audience in 1996 but they did have serious buyers and sellers who were making a lot of money at the very begining.
[8:40:03 PM attheboutique> please define “serious seller” in your context
[8:40:18 PM Guest 4> they built a platform that was meant to bring buyers an sellers together.
[8:40:33 PM Renagade> and Bonanzle is not?
[8:40:39 PM Guest 4> no
[8:40:42 PM JohnZee4PetraZee411> OK…I want to diversify too. So far, I’ve been throwing mud against the wall to see what sticks.
[8:40:47 PM Guest 4> Bonanzle is trying to build a social platform
[8:40:56 PM Guest 4> Read bills personal blog
[8:40:58 PM vintagegoodness> its hard to compare early ebay with early bonanzle - there wasnt much else out there back then, and the auctions were a novelty thing
[8:41:04 PM vintagegoodness> it was exciting and new and fun
[8:41:06 PM Renagade> the realtime chat is bring seller in direct contact with Buyers
[8:41:15 PM attheboutique> Think it through, what you sell, and then where are the buyers, then target them
[8:41:20 PM ebay & Beyond> But social or community is what built ebay
[8:41:22 PM JohnZee4PetraZee411> A good start
[8:41:35 PM Guest 4> no it is not.
[8:41:42 PM] Poppy0927 is logged into the chat
[8:42:03 PM ebay & Beyond> I agree to disagree with you Guest 4
[8:42:12 PM Guest 4> what built ebay was the ability for me on the east coast to buy or sell something I could not find here but was maybe in Alaska.
[8:42:33 PM] attheboutique is on the call
[8:42:48 PM vintagegoodness> right, but that’s not new or unique anymore, all ecommerce websites provide that now
[8:42:59 PM ShesMrsWright> I think Bonanzle is what it is. It is an ALTERNATIVE to Ebay… Not Ebay.. I have many people who don’t like ebay for whatever reason who love
[8:43:05 PM ShesMrsWright> to shop on Bonanzle
[8:43:38 PM attheboutique> it is your business, you choose your venue, and either make it work for you, or choose another
[8:43:42 PM Guest 4> No they don’t all provide that. They mostly all provide venues to sell stuff. There is a difference
[8:44:07 PM JohnZee4PetraZee411> OK, we got Bonanzle, blogging, auction sites - the old 800 pound gorilla feebay, now SeeAuction. A good platform for experimentation

[8:45:36 PM Renagade> Guest 4 ..Bill is open to suggestions…
[8:45:48 PM vintagegoodness> i think them importing eBay categories was them reaching out to ebay peeps
[8:46:31 PM Guest 4> Importing Ebay first tier catgories is their first major mistake

[8:50:13 PM Guest 4> no but ebay was the training ground. IF you are going to bring somethings over from their but not others how are you doing anything but confusing ?
[8:50:37 PM BrightestBlessings> I have had no confusion.
[8:50:44 PM JohnZee4PetraZee411> yeah, Walt, you WERE one of teh few. Most folks don’t understand this
[8:51:05 PM vintagegoodness> i think you are right phaedra, so here is the ultimate question - if you are going to have to drive the traffic, where do you want to drive it to?
[8:51:09 PM BrightestBlessings> Well said!
[8:51:18 PM vintagegoodness> a 3rd party venue? your own website? a combination?
[8:51:24 PM ShesMrsWright> I never sold on Ebay.. To me it was not user friendly.. I have always had to market my business myself. I treat my online sales no different then
[8:51:27 PM ShesMrsWright> my local sales
[8:51:30 PM Guest 4> so (brightblessings) if you sell pottery and a buyer comes to bonanzle how are they going to find you?

[8:53:13 PM JohnZee4PetraZee411> SO, how do we make it easy for folks to link from site to site?

[9:30:35 PM vintagegoodness> dunno what it is but it makes it hard to talk!!
[9:30:37 PM attheboutique> heard it on phone tooo
[9:30:41 PM vintagegoodness> double grrrrr lol
[9:30:43 PM Guest 14> I think Bonanzle is great for antiques. The platform is snappy and the green looks great with the vintage items
[9:30:45 PM JohnZee4PetraZee411> what what echo echo?
[9:30:48 PM Poppy0927> http://www.bonanzle.com/poppy0927
[9:30:53 PM vintagegoodness> lol
[9:30:58 PM SecondHandRose> hi Patty
[9:31:04 PM vintagegoodness> hehe green is nice for the antiques
[9:31:08 PM oldsaltsailor> Not the high end antiques
[9:31:15 PM SecondHandRose> green is a good color
[9:31:21 PM BrightestBlessings> hehehehehe
[9:31:22 PM Renagade> LOL
[9:31:23 PM Guest 4> Wally I understand this about price…. the point is the way Bonazle is set up
[9:31:24 PM JohnZee4PetraZee411> One is the coffee you’re dfrinking
[9:31:28 PM SecondHandRose> color of money
[9:31:32 PM Poppy0927> Hi, lol!
[9:31:41 PM andotherstuff> Yeah, but I’m looking for full value. You’re absolutely right though, if I want to move something I know how.
[9:31:42 PM attheboutique> have to remember to move phone when he makes me laugh
[9:31:45 PM SecondHandRose> notice money has a lot of red on it now days
[9:31:49 PM Renagade> LOL
[9:32:01 PM vintagegoodness> i would think traffic for vintage/antiques on bonanzle is probably equal or near what tias.com and goantiques.com is getting
[9:32:01 PM Poppy0927> http://www.bonanzle.com/HotWheelsGuy
[9:32:04 PM Guest 4> Wally your an auctioneer do you see less interests in auctions like eBay says?
[9:32:16 PM vintagegoodness> rubylane.com gets way more traffic than all three though, which i thought was really interesting
[9:32:25 PM SecondHandRose> good ??? guest 4
[9:33:02 PM Guest 4> (vintage) it is not. We sell antiques on tias and because people know to go there and it is easy to nagivate by category sales per visit is higher
[9:33:02 PM vintagegoodness> Guest4 I think the interests in auctions on eBay is still there for antiques, but people don’t bid most items up very high because they know
[9:33:08 PM vintagegoodness> eventually another one will show up
[9:33:20 PM vintagegoodness> there are so many sellers on ebay, no need to pay more than what you want to pay
[9:33:25 PM vintagegoodness> unless item is super super rare
[9:33:28 PM attheboutique> the point is choose the venue that works for you for the item you are selling
[9:33:49 PM Guest 4> and because ebay want to sell fixed price they are feeding the media and anyone else who will listen that auctions are dying.
[9:33:54 PM attheboutique> again, it comes back to owning, taking ownership of your own business, and making decisions on what is best for your business
[9:34:00 PM andotherstuff> auctions like you’re talking about was a fad
[9:34:22 PM Guest 4> a fad. lol
[9:34:25 PM JohnZee4PetraZee411> WHat about SeeAuction?
[9:34:28 PM andotherstuff> but yes, items MEANT for auction, antiques/collectibles, is anything but a fad
[9:34:41 PM Guest 4> I still sell on eBay and our items still bring a premium
[9:34:55 PM andotherstuff> Guest4 … rare and collectible items?
[9:35:02 PM attheboutique> good for you! choosing the right venue for the item
[9:35:13 PM Guest 4> fear of loss
[9:35:14 PM JohnZee4PetraZee411> It’s fun!
[9:35:17 PM Guest 4> fear of loss
[9:35:18 PM attheboutique> Not I says the spa lady
[9:35:19 PM Guest 14> you can touch the item
[9:35:20 PM Renagade> buyers set the price
[9:35:27 PM Guest 4> fear of loss
[9:35:35 PM Guest 4> competition
[9:35:39 PM Guest 14> free coffee
[9:35:41 PM vintagegoodness> lol
[9:35:43 PM attheboutique> that excitement
[9:35:47 PM JohnZee4PetraZee411> you can’t predict the outcome
[9:35:50 PM reejr123> bargin
[9:35:54 PM Guest 4> hormones

[9:36:25 PM andotherstuff> Send me some Godey’s prints buddy!
[9:36:28 PM andotherstuff>

[9:37:20 PM Guest 4> I am not saying your auctions are wrong
[9:37:24 PM andotherstuff> the new one, which isn’t finished but I’ve been posting to is http://vintagemeld.com
[9:37:33 PM JohnZee4PetraZee411> thx
[9:37:34 PM attheboutique> guest 4, how bout a link to your booth?
[9:37:42 PM Renagade> Wally does REAL auctions
[9:37:43 PM andotherstuff> the old one, which is an info site http://things-and-other-stuff.com
[9:37:48 PM Renagade> no reserve
[9:37:50 PM JohnZee4PetraZee411> How’s teh air up there #$?
[9:37:51 PM Guest 4> lol
[9:37:53 PM Guest 4> lol
[9:37:58 PM Guest 4> reserve
[9:38:24 PM JohnZee4PetraZee411> Wally, he’s getting his payoff, disrupting this group
[9:38:38 PM JohnZee4PetraZee411> He’s hitting your button
[9:38:56 PM andotherstuff> Well, it helps Walt make his point anyway
[9:38:58 PM attheboutique> remaining anonymous is seriously degrading the validity
[9:39:09 PM vintagegoodness> its a good point, reserves are a point of contention with auction peeps, some like them, some don’t
[9:39:35 PM Guest 4> but how many dealers don’t go to an auction house that has a reserve
[9:39:46 PM attheboutique> I always prefer to put my name out there, and stand by my professionalism
[9:40:02 PM Guest 4> thank for the correction wally
[9:40:07 PM Renagade> I can only see a reserve if it is a lowball reasonable one
[9:40:20 PM andotherstuff> I personally don’t have a problem with reserves as a buyer, but I won’t go over my price.
[9:40:46 PM attheboutique> BB, where are you??????
[9:40:50 PM Guest 4> Wow….. I can’t beleive I am hearing this….
[9:40:58 PM Guest 4> wally.
[9:40:59 PM attheboutique> being tooooo quiet, I get worried, lol
[9:41:10 PM BrightestBlessings> sorry getting more coffee
[9:41:13 PM vintagegoodness> right cliff, and especially on eBay, people rarely go over what they want to pay because they know the item will get listed by someone else eventually
[9:41:34 PM attheboutique> hmmmmmmmm, share, lol
[9:41:36 PM andotherstuff> As an eBay buyer I love seeing reserve though because I know if cuts out a lot of competition
[9:41:41 PM BrightestBlessings> sure
[9:41:43 PM andotherstuff> definitely a turn-off to most eBayers
[9:41:44 PM vintagegoodness> so many sellers, no feeling of scarcity anymore on most items
[9:41:55 PM Guest 4> not on ebay lol
[9:42:05 PM Renagade> listening
[9:42:12 PM Guest 4> you mean low reserve?
[9:42:12 PM Renagade> true..
[9:42:19 PM Guest 4> wally?
[9:42:20 PM andotherstuff> True. eBay and the Internet opened up a worldwide market that brought us a more honest idea of scarcity
[9:42:27 PM JohnZee4PetraZee411> I’ve been ripped for low prices tho when I start low
[9:42:28 PM vintagegoodness> exactly
[9:42:34 PM attheboutique> so again, let us reiterate, you choose your venue, you own your business, it is your decision what works for you
[9:42:36 PM Renagade> true true…
[9:42:37 PM vintagegoodness> what is scarce in your town isnt scarce online
[9:42:41 PM andotherstuff> Items that were rare at the local fair often turned out to be common
[9:42:50 PM andotherstuff> lol, same though Mitzi!
[9:43:00 PM Guest 4> yes and unfortunately most sellers of the “rare junk” are all looking for a place to sell.
[9:43:05 PM JohnZee4PetraZee411> We talkin volume wally?
[9:43:09 PM vintagegoodness> so if you have a collectible that isnt truly rare, list it fixed or start it at the lowest price you are willing to sell it
[9:43:14 PM] attheboutique has hung up
[9:43:17 PM JohnZee4PetraZee411> audio dropping out!!
[9:43:38 PM Renagade> Have you ever NOT sold at live aution becuase it wasnt bringing what it was worth Walt?

[9:43:45 PM andotherstuff> Right. I’ve established a market for many items that I got sick of seeing go for bids too low
[9:43:58 PM Guest 4> On line selling of antiques and collectables suffer from the same thing x10 that co ops and B&M stores do.

[9:48:27 PM JohnZee4PetraZee411> ALl I want to do is learn from you, Walt
[9:48:32 PM Renagade> I have been watching your things
[9:48:40 PM Guest 4> Wally do you put High end on eBay or recommend your clients to do so?
[9:48:58 PM andotherstuff> I used to play w/a reserve every so often if I’d have a low MB and retail BIN fee. Didn’t work too well.
[9:49:13 PM Guest 4> I mean high end antiques like thousands of dollars?
[9:49:35 PM Guest 4> Do you reccommend this to your clients?
[9:49:59 PM andotherstuff> Walt, any idea how much of your eBay traffic comes through your sites?
[9:50:19 PM andotherstuff> Or do you think you’re getting mostly natural traffic from the site itself?
[9:50:38 PM andotherstuff> Because obviously you’ve got a bit of a following
[9:50:52 PM Guest 4> I am not attacking you Wally I am asking if you think it is a good idea to send clients to sell on any online venue with no reserve
[9:51:00 PM oldsaltsailor> **
[9:51:09 PM Renagade> Guest 4 is an ebay seller who would like tips
[9:51:15 PM Guest 4> lol

[9:52:17 PM Renagade> Hi Annie
[9:52:21 PM Guest 4> HI
[9:52:24 PM JohnZee4PetraZee411> OK, so what do you suggest on ho to sell in an auction, Walt, for those of us who had some bummer auctions? ALl I want to do is gain from yur experien
[9:52:32 PM Guest 4> So what good are online venues?
[9:52:53 PM Renagade> depends on what you sell
[9:52:55 PM Guest 4> Ebay made it possible for anyone to sell from their attics?
[9:53:06 PM Guest 4> Built their business
[9:53:09 PM Guest 4> on the premise
[9:53:21 PM JohnZee4PetraZee411> Bonanzle auction?
[9:53:37 PM Guest 4> needs one
[9:53:44 PM Renagade> they are debating it
[9:53:55 PM JohnZee4PetraZee411> How?
[9:54:00 PM Guest 4> Wally ….. Price is not the sole factor of success
[9:54:09 PM Renagade> can you type that fast?
[9:54:15 PM vintagegoodness> lol
[9:54:21 PM JohnZee4PetraZee411> Done. Let me know when
[9:54:38 PM Guest 4> I asked if we could do that wally was told no

[9:55:02 PM vintagegoodness> you cant take bids, you can take offers?
[9:55:10 PM vintagegoodness> seems like you should be able to
[9:55:12 PM Guest 4> Both bill and Mark
[9:55:23 PM Guest 4> correct
[9:55:27 PM vintagegoodness> interesting
[9:55:28 PM Renagade> best offer can be like and offer….
[9:55:28 PM Guest 4> please do
[9:55:43 PM Guest 4> That was the question that I asked
[9:55:50 PM Poppy0927> Use the best offer feature to wheel & deal
[9:55:56 PM vintagegoodness> maybe because offers are typically to lower the price, not to raise it?
[9:56:00 PM Guest 4> They are techies and not marketeers
[9:56:04 PM Guest 4> marketers
[9:56:05 PM andotherstuff> I turned off my offer feature b/c I lowered prices … wondering if I can have them off for individual items, but turn the option on for …
[9:56:08 PM andotherstuff> …for multiple purchases
[9:56:10 PM JohnZee4PetraZee411> Bingo Mitzi
[9:56:18 PM Renagade> Annie you MUST remember…this is a NEW site…give it time…
[9:56:31 PM vintagegoodness> it would help bonanzle to have offers that raise the price! lol
[9:56:37 PM Guest 4> I am giving it time.
[9:57:05 PM andotherstuff> I still have the attitude of expecting nothing from Bonanzle, but feeling very confident there will be reward … soon
[9:57:09 PM Guest 4> Correct Wally and that was exactly what I was told. It did not follow into the philosophy of the site
[9:57:20 PM Renagade> I feel Bonanzle IS going to be a good venue for them
[9:57:33 PM vintagegoodness> right this year is going to be the big test
[9:57:34 PM Guest 4> Categories are set up following eBay
[9:58:30 PM Guest 4> Somebody with a voice that matters needs to present this to Bill & Mark

[10:04:20 PM Guest 4> correct
[10:04:35 PM Renagade> Well send me your link via my booth…
[10:04:42 PM Renagade> would love to see
[10:04:46 PM Guest 4> and putting time into a site that has not defined it’s market place could be a waste of a lot of time?
[10:05:26 PM andotherstuff> I’ve very slowly allotted more time towards Bonanzle as they proved themselves to me with sales
[10:05:27 PM Guest 4> Mitzy or wally do you think most of what is being sold on online venues is unique ?
[10:05:47 PM andotherstuff> Now I don’t have a great number of sales there, but more than I’ve seen anywhere else but eBay
[10:06:04 PM Guest 4> why?
[10:06:04 PM andotherstuff> Bonanzle = potential to me
[10:06:05 PM Renagade> me too
[10:06:14 PM Guest 4> BINGO
[10:06:19 PM Guest 4> Wally

[10:07:07 PM andotherstuff> Oh even in the old baseball card show days, I’d often make more before the customers came in the door
[10:07:28 PM Renagade> he wants to buy low…but gets mad If I sell low
[10:07:38 PM Guest 4> and many think their grandmothers pillows are stuffed with gold bricks
[10:07:50 PM andotherstuff> Value is only what someone is willing to pay
[10:07:55 PM andotherstuff> Value to me is what I can make
[10:07:57 PM Guest 4> Which is why auctions workd
[10:07:58 PM Renagade> true
[10:07:59 PM Guest 4> work
[10:08:09 PM Guest 4> there are no bad sales only bad buys
[10:08:17 PM Renagade> true cliff
[10:08:19 PM andotherstuff> Totally agree Guest4
[10:08:48 PM andotherstuff> I do what Mitzi does, everything goes at auction first, then…
[10:09:01 PM andotherstuff> …then I jack up the price as Fixed Price. With Best Offer usually.
[10:09:10 PM Guest 4> say again lost audio
[10:09:16 PM vintagegoodness> me too cliff
[10:09:27 PM Renagade> I did for a while…some things go straight to store
[10:09:29 PM Guest 14> buyers remorse at an auction site = not a fun experience
[10:09:30 PM vintagegoodness> mark it up and put it in the store Guest4
[10:09:36 PM andotherstuff> It’s about turning it over quick, but once it doesn’t move right away, you make your money on the long haul
[10:09:38 PM vintagegoodness> if it doesnt sell at auction
[10:10:02 PM Guest 4> YOu can’t put things on Bonazle are great
[10:10:25 PM Guest 14> ? #3
[10:10:30 PM Guest 14> i mean 4
[10:10:36 PM andotherstuff> As a buyer, I love sellers who put a Fixed Price on something first … that’s when I find steals
[10:10:44 PM Renagade> Anyone worry about set price being too low?? Like it is not good??
[10:10:51 PM Guest 4> Where exactly would I put a great piece of FOLK ART on Bonanzle?
[10:10:54 PM vintagegoodness> yes it is tricky
[10:11:00 PM andotherstuff> For auction Renegade? Never.
[10:11:03 PM Guest 4> Or a good piece of art glass?
[10:11:07 PM Guest 4> or pottery?
[10:11:08 PM Guest 14> right on the home page
[10:11:10 PM Renagade> set price
[10:11:10 PM vintagegoodness> i tend to price thinking of 1. what i paid and 2. what i’ve seen others sell for
[10:11:12 PM Guest 4> lol
[10:11:20 PM Guest 4> not the question
[10:11:26 PM andotherstuff> Like Mitzi, I always give an item a run at auction first
[10:11:34 PM Guest 4> where would you categorize it?
[10:11:49 PM Guest 14> what category did you use at ebay?
[10:11:59 PM Guest 4> Folk ARt
[10:12:08 PM Guest 14> Then use folk art at Bonanzle
[10:12:10 PM Renagade> art by artist
[10:12:16 PM Guest 4> not there
[10:12:21 PM Guest 14> custom booth category
[10:12:25 PM Guest 4> and it is not art by artist
[10:12:33 PM Guest 14> drop in the main category and then create your own
[10:12:35 PM Renagade> love the custom
[10:12:38 PM Guest 4> then you have to rely on search to be found
[10:12:45 PM Guest 4> makes no sense
[10:12:47 PM Guest 14> use good keywords in your ad
[10:12:53 PM Guest 14> optimize your listing
[10:13:00 PM Guest 4> yes but then you sill have to rely on search
[10:13:01 PM Renagade> thats when you need to promote
[10:13:09 PM Guest 4> makes it one step more difficult for buyers
[10:13:24 PM Renagade> promotion is a big key in Bonanzle
[10:13:44 PM Guest 4> I understand that it is big in the entire antique business
[10:13:56 PM vintagegoodness> right promotion is more important than ever
[10:14:00 PM Renagade> Bonanzle is a hybred…you have to promote some yourself
[10:14:05 PM Guest 4> but when I put things in the shop I don’t hide them in a closet and wait for my clients to ask it I happen to have them
[10:14:17 PM andotherstuff> Agree Renegade, you get out what you put in right now on Bonanzle
[10:14:33 PM Guest 14> right, you go out and advertise and promote
[10:14:49 PM Renagade> and you have many sellers out there…all promoting
[10:14:51 PM Guest 4> Wally are you finding a lot of antiques to buy for resale on Bonanzle?
