Feature request: In the Sell area, when listing sold items, show the real name of the buyer instead of their Bitmit handle.
Doesn't this eliminate anonymity? Doesn't bother me that much, just thought that was a key bitcoin element. And for example, why do you need a real name if shipping isn't required. I sell tangible items, shipping is required. The buyer's name is made available to me through Bitmit, but only on the individual order pages. I'd like the name to be visible in the listing of all orders as well, as I use that name to track the orders in my own system. |

How do you anonymously ship people stuff?
I sell mostly virtual things, so in that case no name would be required. I sell tangible items, shipping is required. The buyer's name is made available to me through Bitmit, but only on the individual order pages. I'd like the name to be visible in the listing of all orders as well, as I use that name to track the orders in my own system.
Ok, that makes sense then. |

I'm having trouble updating the product description.
Certain formatting and links causes the submission to return with "invalid item description"
Or is there a limit on the amount of text that can be there?
I really need help getting this fixed.
thanks.

Played with it some more; seams like there is a limit on the amount of text for the description. Is that clarified on the site somewhere? |

New feature: Automatic cancel of unpaid orders after a certain time frame (x minutes / hours / days) Go to Settings -> Sell settings to check it out! |

Also, thanks Tosaki for the quick fixes. I would also suggest an update to the categories. I feel like they are very limited. Almost everytime I list something, I feel like there isn't the right category for it. For example, I went to post some theme park tickets yesterday and had no idea where to put it. Today I went to post some Final Four basketball tickets and had the same problem. I wouldn't mind having a "tickets" category  New ticket category! |

New ticket category!
I see it added when I go to create a listing but there is no link to the category in the list on the homepage. Could you add that too please? |

Don't worry, our category cache needs some time to rebuild. It will appear shortly. Update: - "My orders" -> "My bids" is designed much nicer and way more informative than before. - Payment notification bugfix. Users did not get payment/wallet notifications. Some users might have got some delayed notifications today. Good news for our professional sellers. CSV item import/export is coming along the next days. |

Found a small bug.
I had an order where the buyer purchased two items together.
For one of the listings, there was over 10 for sell and the other only 1 for sale.
After the purchase of 1 of each together, now both listing have been removed from bitmit.
Thanks for all the hard work.
PM me if you need more details as I don't always check this thread.

OK, I delisted the auction in hopes that I could reactivate, but then it was gone :-( I was hoping it would be moved to the "Not Sold" category of the sell area. Oh well, I've recreated the listing so no worries. |

I'm not sure if this matches the above, but I can say that sometimes when someone buys a quantity of one when I have the option to buy a quantity greater than one, it ends my listing even though I have multiple available.

Seems like bitmits server is down. Having trouble connecting to it, and i also did a test with isitup.org, no luck for them either.

What's Bitmits policy on no-show items?
On most of my items, I offer free unregistered shipping, and registered shipping for an extra fee of $2. The "free" option is of course not free to me, but I find it's very much worth the small cost to make it easier for the customers to make the decision to go ahead and buy my items.
Many customers chose the free option, without tracking. Sometimes, it takes quite some time before the item arrives with the customer. Should an item never show up at all, would Bitmit release the escrowed payment back to the customer?
I think this is an interesting discussion. I, as a seller, has no blame in the item never showing up in the customers mailbox (as long as I have actually sent the item). Still, should it be my loss if the item is lost in transit? Or is it the customers fault for choosing an unregistered shipping option?

I'm thinking about approaching small shops offering them some extra sales if they handle the shipping for me. I put their stuff online on bitmit. They tell me prices, stocks, shipping costs and shipping times and I generate sales for them.
I don't want to mix shops though. I don't want to have several logins neither. Any thoughts on how to enable shops within an account?
So user/Giszmo could have sub-pages user/Giszmo/shop/ElectronicsFrankfurt and user/Giszmo/shop/DeliciousFoodBerlin.
Users browsing my FoodBerlin stuff should see FoodBerlin stuff first and then be linked to ElectronicsFrankfurt if they are interested in what else I'm selling.
Do you have a problem with the multi-login-approach?

Yep. Good point. I had the same thoughts when I ordered one of your lasers  I assumed that it is bitmit's sole decision how to proceed and assumed that it would side with the party that has references vs. the party that has no or bad references. In the case of a draw it would send the money to some non-profit organisation. Manual handling is what bitmit is charging for, so things should depend. |

In the case of a draw it would send the money to some non-profit organisation. Manual handling is what bitmit is charging for, so things should depend. I think Bimit should also take feedback into account in some circumstances. For example, someone with 100 high value transactions and perfect feedback disagrees with a person who signed up 2 days ago with 0 feedback. I'm not saying it should be the deciding factor, but should be considered. I believe at this point Tosaki is manually handling problems on a case by case basis (correct me if I'm wrong). I would say this is preferable as long as it's feasible. You can't beat a system if you can't predict how it will work. |
