hey is there an admin that can help with my feedback?  i listed a small item (0.5 btc) and forgot about it.  someone payed, didnt hear back from me and left poor feedback.  i have fixed the problem to the buyers satisfaction.

can i get my negative feedback changed if you were to get an OK by the buyer?

Yeah. Just tell him to send us an email with your & his username.

What HTML code can be put in an ad? I noticed, for example, anchors (the <a>-tag, for hotlinking) work, but iframe (I tried embedding a YouTube video) does not.

[tosaki]

You can put in a URL and it will be converted to a link. More is not supported yet but will be implemented soon so please be patient

[Global BTC]

OK. It would be nice if you added some more statistics. Today all I can find is "This item has been viewed x times." at the bottom of the item page. It would be nicer if that number was displayed in the list of items for sale in the "Sell area". You could at least add the possibility for your users to embed their own statistics module to the individual product pages.

Anyway, thanks for creating this "eBay of BitCoin". I hope you become as rich as Pierre Omidyar

I hit the 80 items limit. I wasn't aware such a limit was in place. Had to remove some items since I want to add some more USB hubs. I guess I'll start some auctions to get things sold and build a reputation. How many successful sales do I need to get the limit lifted?

I wanted to add as many items as possible before I started with auctions because I know from experience with other similar sites that auctions are a great way of promoting your set price items.

[tosaki]

Thank you, thank you, I have written down your notes to my todo list.

Oh, I introduced that limit because there was a seller that flooded Bitmit with a bunch of shit but I appreciate your products. You should be able to list more (only 1 sale required). I also add some more categories the next days which fit better to your products. (In Computer->Hardware->Misc are too much products currently )

[Global BTC]

Great! Is 1 sale alone enough to lift the limit, or do I also need to receive feedback from the sale?
If you want to, I can suggest some more categories for you. Actually, I have a lot of suggestions to give, not only on categories but on overall site functionality. Should I just post them here? I don't want to flood you with what can be perceived as negative criticism.

[tosaki]

Lets do it private. Just send you a pm

Edit: fixed.

Bitcoins are only transfered to the seller when the buyer has set the item as received or when the buyer has given a positive feedback for the order

This doesn't work.

I have received positive feedback from the buyer, but the money is still locked.

I did receive the money in my wallet (Dumb I didn't check that first, lol) but the order does not update properly. It still says the item is not received and money is still locked.

[tosaki]

@Nicolau, will be fixed soon.

Doesn't look like this site is going through SSL.

Never-mind.  It is there I am either blind or....

I keep running into this problem where the image uploader hangs (the animation stops) and Chrome gets very unresponsive. This happens after I've uploaded 10-30 pictures. The only thing to do is to restart chrome and refrain from uploading new pictures for a few hours. Does this happen to anyone else? Maybe I'm the only one starting so many listings.

[Global BTC]

The problem I describe above is happening daily. Am I the only one who is affected?

[Garr255]

Yeah you are starting sooo many listings and TBH flooding the market with crap. Please stop. Thanks

[Global BTC]

Why do you think the things I'm offering are crap?

[Nicolai Larsen]

Why do you think the things I'm offering are crap?

I wouldn't call it crap, but you could try and put some of the things into one auction.

Like the watches you sell. Instead of putting up an auction for each color of the same watch, just put it into one and when people buy ask for the color they want?

Nicolai: Thank you for your suggestion.

ID verification:   The user has not verified his identity yet.

I have a feeling this text might be scaring buyers away, escrow service or not. Until the possibility to verify your identity has been implemented, maybe you should remove it? You could also rephrase it to something like "ID verification has not yet been implemented".

But you can get verified

ID verification:
The user has confirmed his identity by the following verification process:
Government issued ID

Same as almost everywhere else. For better or worse, I've started keeping my gov't-issued BS on my desktop because I have to submit it so often when using BTC.
