    Indeed - Gerry - went back to the planet he came from I think! If you need info on credit card integration - pop an email to the admin fella - Phil Newton I think - just the admin email address should do. Give their head office a call for a grumble re:account management, just mentioning...

    EDirectory Merchant

    Hi, see my previous posting re: unlimited charges and comments! We get several orders every day from edirectory and overall it works out reasonably OK and against other PPC shopping sites, it's manageable from a finance point of view. The downside is payment up front and the initial setup...

    Thanks for the reminder! I have been meaning to pop back on here and post an update on our edirectory experience so far! We got the deal as good as we could on unlimited products (I think it was about £900 + VAT) but we stretched it to 15 months instead of 12 and agreed to pay in 2...

    Changing Accountants - How to Find a New One???

    Look out for eBay Express

    Oh I would dearly love to know what Kate (or anyone else) is paying! I am negotiating the same deal at the moment but am very reluctant to pay for ANYTHING up front - why should we? Nobody else expects this and it removes a large proportion of incentive for them to ensure it works for us! Not...

    Look out for eBay Express

    Right now Ebay Express is rubbish unless you sell specific items in very specific categories. Very few categories are active and Ebay are unable to provide any timetable for expansion. Also, listings have to be in a very specific format and the required format items cannot be bulk edited...
