This is a setting you can select if you do not wish for others to be able to see the username of the people that have bids on your item. They will be able to see that there is a bid and how many bids but not the name of the people bidding. If you leave this blank then anyone who wishes can see who is bidding on the item.
Your listings was transfered from the old site to this one. The old site had old html editors. Each editor is read differently by different software.
Now that we have the new software here we also have the latest in html editors and it will read your html differently. This new editor will read any errors in your script.
The black "?" are know as "dead space". Simply open the listing, click on "edit", DO NOT OPEN THE EDITOR, place your curser behind the "?" and using the back space key on your key board remove the "?". That will correct the "dead space" in your script.
Sellers....to set your payment options so you can get paid right away in Members Area open "Prefilled Fields/Global Setting".There you will click on the highlighted "PayPal" or "Google CheckOut". A drop down box will open and there you will put the email address necessary. Click "Proceed". The dropdown box will close. Put a check in the box next to your payment choice.
You have two choices for direct payment through this site. Pay Pal and Google CheckOut. The other options you see for payment are only offline payment options. That means you must have a means of running their credit card yourself and not through the site.
WHY AM I BEING ASKED TO PAY A SELLER FEE?
SELLERS: You are required to pay a 2.00 fee through PayPal as a "Verification" that your email address, contact information and PayPal account is authentic. This fee is only required once every 356 days (1 year) to verify that your information is current. This 2.00 fee will be refunded to your account (with an additional 2.00 ) as a credit as soon as the payment with PayPal is complete so it is actually costing you nothing, you are getting a total of 4.00 credit to your account. The software system will not allow you to sell until this is completed. This helps sales as buyers feel safer knowing that the seller has a valid paypal account and email address that they can contact them through.
BUYERS: Buyers are now "Required" to become "Verified" but remember that many (and I am one of them) will have their listing settings set to "Must Be PayPal Verified" to bid or buy. This is quickly becoming the policy of many sellers as we have gone through night mares trying to get paid and end up with bounced checks and invalid money orders.
