News Bid4figures.com - Register Now

www.bid4figures.com

Here it is! My friend set this site up to encourage a community setting for auctions.

There is plenty of fan-sites, archives, bulletin boards, and such on the web, but there is no auction site that he knows about to help offer an alternative to ebay.

So, he's hoping to make this his contribution to the toy lovers of the world.

bid4figures.com is a free auction site targeted at collectors of various toy lines from the many different collecting communities, some of which we all have been a part of for some years.

If we can all sign up and support this joint venture, then we will at least give ourselves a platform for an alternative instead of using ebay

Thumbs up Thanks!

Thanks for your registrations, I too definately hopes this takes off, we all believe surely that ebay needs at least an alternative right?
I hope to see many other action figure fans on there too, we could help each other initiate our wants via joe dios to the site. So for example if you see something on someones wanted list and see it on the bid site, let them know about it.

I'm listing some BINs now, but I'm also listing some low price $2 auctions as well.

Sounds interesting. I don't use eBay anymore, too many bad experiences.

I registered. This sounds like a very good alternative to grEEdbay. eBay was once good, back in the late 90's and up to 2001 or so. It jumped the shark a few times now.

I have some things to list. Are there no fees at all? That is great. It will be easier to list things fairly priced when you don't have to markup 42.5% to break even from eBay and PayPal fees.

I tried to Register but it keeps saying,"Incorrect Date Format". The only Date on there is the Birth Date,and it has--(dd-mm-yyyy).So I put it in as-05-??-1970,but I put the real Day down and it's 2 numbers,so I don't know what the deal is????

Maybe a stupid question, but can you sell/buy vehicles, too? I'd like to help get this website out there, as a LOT of people are bummed with the 'Bay.

Ah, just checked Star Wars and saw a vehicle. I guess there aren't any active Joe vehicle auctions right now.

You can sell A-Team, Action Man, GIJOE. Star Wars, Transformers. pretty much anything as long as its to do with Action Figures/Toys collectables. The site owner who set it up is cool and very flexible.

He's offered people the chance to buy and sell for free.. something ebay cannot match. People need to give this a chance really for it to take off.
