Blue and White Floral Fun

We have a new blue and white floral print line.  I have fallen in love with this color, this design and the overall item.  I find myself gazing at it for long periods of time as it draws you in.  The brightness of the blue against the white looks so crisp and clean.  We have planters in this decor.  Not just regular plantars. We have a teacup and saucer with a watering can planter. The teacup is sold as one unit and the watering can is sold with 2 other planters, also blue and white floral.  I will leave you with their images and know that you will be drawn in as well.  Please visit us at:

Well that's just Bonanzle!

Well here goes my follow up on the big changes on this crazy new site called, "Bonanzle".  On ebay you pay listing insertion fee's, high final value fee's and a hefty monthly store fee for those who have a store.

The first thing I did checking out this new site ,that is growing so fast, was to check the fee schedule.  It was hard to believe but true.  Listing items cost nothing, there is no final value fee and you have no booth(store)fee. 

  There is a place on the front of your store where people can write messages for all to see.  I was confused by this but learned quickly how unique it truly is. I opened our booth and filled out our profile.  I published it and within 5 minutes, we started getting welcome messages and little smiley faces waving "hi".  There were not just a few, the people flooded in welcoming us and offering to help within anything.
I thought what do they want?  They are my competition!  Well they have a different thought process.  Sellers  hold other sellers to high standards and buyers hold other buyers responsible.  There is a feeling that this place has learned from sellers leaving ebay.  During the day, people leave messages saying hi and they are just browsing.  It feels like a big community with all the stores together with their doors open.  There is a feeling of support and honest kind people.  There are games sellers play, there is FFF- finding friends on friday where we all go out and meet new people(store owners).  

If you aren't licking your lips yet to go and check her out, get this:
1.  Bonanzle offers Paypal and Google Check out.
2.  They have a specific place for Google Analytics code and they give you easy      directions to learn how to do this and what it is for.
3.  Bonanzle submits your items to Google Merchant Center.  YES, REALLY.
4.  The members have gotten a site on Googles Merchant Center just for Bonanzle and offer how to place your store there.
5. Members that have websites offer to place links for your sites on their fan pages.

Okay enough for this blog. Tomorrow I will discuss the forums, Facebook and Twitter.  Remind me to talk about tagging items and fav'in stores. Cool!

Well we better close our conversation so everyone has time to calm down and go to bed tonight.  No all nighters on Bonanzle.  Okay you'll probably see me there. 

Sleep tight and see you soon...(like tonight.lol)

Welcome, sit back and Enjoy the Sales

Well here goes, my first post.  I first found Bonanzle on the web as I was reading other Ebay sellers blogs.  We have a store on Ebay and so much has changed.  My husband runs our ebay store and I take care of the design and listings.  If you are an ebay seller who only lists a couple of times a year, boy do you need to read the new rules. Yikes  To make a long story short and not to bash ebay - I was reading other sellers' blogs on leaving Ebay and going to Bonanzle.  I saw the name numerous times and decided to check it out. www.bonanzle.com  It is a hoot! It is this adorable, quirky site that believes in all of its' family.  It is run like a big family.  The stores are called booths and each booth has the choice to im each other on the site.  You can see who enters your store and there is also a place to leave a message on the board at the front of your booth.  What is so cool about this is people who enter your store usually shout a "hi" and even a "hope you have a great selling day".  OMG these competitors are nice to each other.

I will continue this in my next blog as there is so much I want you to know about Bonanzle.  Why?  Because I have a booth there and am really excited about the site
