Ebay/Grand Slam question/suggestion?

[alanu]

Is there a way on ebay or grand slam to sort out items with a starting price above a certain amount? I suppose sellers wouldn't like it, but it would sure help eliminate the "auction" items that are basically listed with BIN prices.

On Grand Slam Bids there is an advanced search option bar on the left, when you go into the categories. You can put price criteria in there and sort that way. I just did it for items priced $10.00 to $50.00 and it worked fine.

For the record I am selling fixed price items on GSB weekly as they are priced right. We are doing more marketing and will continue adding sellers and buyers on a regular basis.

Thank you for the replies, but I think both of those options only sort out items based on the "current price".

I was hoping to sort out the items based on "starting price", that way it would still include items that are currently at a high bid price, but started at a reasonable price.

You can sort by the # of bids on GSB. Since most of the listings are, rightfully so for now, fixed price, there probably won't be too many to sort through. That might help. Otherwise, playing around with the search feature, which is quite rich, should prove helpful for what you need. I am not sure we have precisely what you are looking for though. Also, there are little arrows atop the categories. Those searches work extremely well. I just clicked on them again and saw the few listings with bids, as well as I saw the highest and lowest fixed price categories/listings in order. The system really is quite good at searching.
