Teddy Talk: Creating, Collecting, Connecting

Hi all, just a bit more about eBay, I have seen with my own eyes, a bid come in on one of my artworks, then it just disappeared! Really, this has happened to me, when I was in "my ebay", just last month! And, as well, I have placed bids, only for them to disappear as well, when I go to "my ebay" the item I bid on was not there-this has happened to me more than once...I am at the point now where I will write down the seller when I place a bid! If any of you sell, I would highly recommend you write down the bidder ID's so that if a bid "gets lost" you will be able to contact that person...boy I wish I had wrote down the bidder ID.....bye all, Ginnette

First, Hello to all! My name is Ginnette -pronounced Jeanette- I was born right here in the USA, but Mom had to name me with a name that began with "G", because my Father's name was George, anyway before I share my concerns about ebay, I want to send a big THANK YOU to Joanne Livingston, of Desertmountainbears- she told me about this website, and I am so glad she did! I think this website is terrific, Great, COOL MAN! Anyway, I am an artist who does a variety of art forms, one being stuffed bears and other animals, and ebay has been virtually my only place to sell, since I began selling in 2002. But ebay seems to be cheating me more and more...you see, I paid the extra $24.00 to have my newest bear, shown in this photo with this post, listed on the first page of search results, but honestly, most of the time it is not there! Look for yourself! The ad still has 5 days left, and it's not like "artist made bears" is a large catagory-there are less than 2,000 of them...and yet my lovely bear is not there...I sincerly think they are cheating me at this point. My ebay id is the same as my name here: purplesisters7
