    In short, DON'T! Email notices are to ONLY alert you of a reply to your private message or your ad on this site. Replying to the email just wastes your time as it goes NOWHERE, and probably pisses off the person you thought you replied to when they think you just ignored them. So instead of complaining to me about your messages not being replied to from this site via email, please READ that email notice that plainly states what you need to do in order to reply to who you are trying to converse with.

    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

i had someone win an auction od mine through reptibid but trying to find them and there not a registered user how is that possible
because the buyer didnt pay so wanted to block them from my other auctions and they werent registered hum weird username was Xtremebulldawgs
 
how do they have user name but not be registered?
I think they must have changed their mind and they dont want the item.
 
I bet...

What I bet happened is this person probably didn't pay for other items he/she "purchased" when they were the highest bidder. They were probably reported to Reptibid Admin (or Webmaster) and were removed from the system for not paying for other items. Reptibid has gotten a good bit more strict about banning people quickly when they don't pay for things, especially when they receive numerous complaints about a user name within a short time span. I know that they have banned 4 people that I reported for not paying when they were the highest bidder in the last few months. When I went back to add their user names to my "blocked bidder" list it wouldn't let me, because the User ID no longer existed since they had been banned from the system. I report every single non-paying and dead-beat bidder to Reptibid, because I figure if they are a non-payer for my auction maybe Reptibid can put an end to them quickly so that they won't do the same to another Seller.

You can always e-mail Reptibid and ask them if that user has been banned as well.

Hope this helps.

this person gave me negative feedback when
i gave them form monday to thursday they didnt pay so i relisted then i get a responsebut didnt after several emails i sent reminding buyer
 
Ditto

That happened to me once too. Someone who left a negative feedback was banned from the system a few days later for non-payment to several sellers and leaving awful feedback for all of them to boot.

If you e-mail the webmaster at Reptibid and tell them the details of the dead-beat bidder who obviously has been banned. They CAN remove bad feedback when it is posted wrongfully. Just approcah them in a professional manner and I am sure they will look at the situation and get it cleared up and straighten out your feedback record.

Good luck with that.

I don't even use Reptibid anymore. I've had TONS of problems in the past couple of months trying to use - there has been a troll stalking me & giving me & Crystal a horrible and undeserved reputation.

I complained to Reptibid admin, and they would sit around sucking their thumbs until I got rude and extremely upset, and THEN they'd do the minimum about it.

I'll never use Reptibid again.
 
Charge for auctions?

Don't count on it! I asked them to do that for a mistake that I made with feedback and they did nothing.

Reptibid are well known for doing nothing!



is it true that reptibid is going to start chargeing money?

I am positive they will at some point. Just don't know when! Probably when they think they have enough members to make it viable is when it will happen.
