cc...you have WAAAAAY too much stuff on your page, anyone looking would get confused and not be sure what they were bidding on and click the back button.

also, you are paying Store fees for the month and only have ONE ITEM in the store? why? for the money you are paying you could have just listed one auction and one buy it now, and saved.


cut all the stuff on your page that is NOT connected to the actual auction. also remember a HUGE % of ebay buyers are country dwellers, with slow, dial up connections, not everyone lives in the city with all the choces we city dwellers have for ISP etc....

your auctions would be v. slow loading for the majority of users I think.

I think the more hits you get on your item the bigger the chance you get your collar felt by the boys in blue.

You are actively advertising software that allows someone to hack into a system!!!!!!!!

I would have thought that was as illegal as using it.

Your listing is carp. If you want to put details of each product have them right across the page so they don't take a week to read scrolling down.

Paying store fees for one product with only a multiple of 10 or less is never going to be economical.

The only way to find out if your product is worth listing on ebay is to list it as an auction several times and see what average price it will sell for, after that it may be worth listing with store fees but I doubt what you save in listing fees will cover the extra FVF and store fees.

Wow thanks for your great reply. It's difficult to find help from people who actually understand my product.

Maybe you're right about the word "hack". (as seen above) it's obvious the average person has no idea what hacking/security testing really is and how standard and important it is for an organisation or power user. Unfortunately people think of some hollywood image of some kid taking billions of dollars out of banks when rounding off the 0.001 cents off in transactions.

The main reason why I use the word is if I do get kids seeing it advertised they'll think it's 'cool' and buy one thinking it'll let them get their friends facebook account or something stupid like that.

For those who mentioned before, as I said I've already done my testing and the numbers add up. I was selling it before whilst using the "make an offer" function with most people opting to pay my nominated price or $5 less. It's not worth my while to sell it any cheaper.

I don't understand when you say "store items do not get the same exposure" do they get less exposure than standard items on BIN or auction?

for whoever mentioned about changing my site for people in the country, the only thing that takes time to load is the youtube video and thats only if you press play. The standard picture on my site is 32KB, if you're on a connection that can't load pictures that size at a decent speed then you're probably not very into computers anyway.

ok so i fixed the side panel, thanks again kannaman25 for pointing that out, don't worry i'm sure you'll get better at design too.

Not all hacking is illegal. One of the operating systems there is for wireless security testing "white hat" hacking. It's still called hacking. If i'm asked questions I can simply point in the direction of Wikipedia.

There's no implication anywhere in the add saying that my product will get you into someone else's account. So i don't think i'm being dishonest, it's simply playing on peoples assumptions/ignorance/inability to read. The item does exactly as it describes.

I didn't feel i'd be approached by such as tribunal about something I didn't even ask.


Back on track, how can I better promote this product? Should I use any of those extra features like "featured" or something? They seem expensive, more expensive than having a store, have people tried them before?

I only used "best offer" as a testing procedure. I know what people will pay now. All i'm trying to is increase exposure. I figured it was expensive to be listing it for 10 days at a time anyway because i've got it sitting in 2 catagories. Also the time I spend playing with it was another factor. Is there a way to track where people have clicked from so i can find out if i need to only list in one category?

Lol. What a seller.. Hacking has a bad connotation! OP you'll never know if someone would read it wrongly and decides to report your listing or something!

If it is getting boring, you know where the door is..you are very rude Especially when you come here and ask for peoples opinions/advice and all they have done is tried to help you with some great advice .....Good Luck with your store....
