Wow, where did this year go? Just a few days till Christmas and my tree languishes in the front room (well, it did make it in from the garage) awaiting attention. It does have some gold leaves on it – have no clue where the Christmas ornaments are. I am waiting on a personal rally to go find those ornaments – suspect they are in the spare room downstairs.
Here is the latest what's hot, what's gossip, and what is scandal on YardSellR.
First up, lets "Shop Small" this Christmas. YardSellR will give you five dollars for signing the pledge! It is that easy! Link is down below in the links section of this daily blog.
YardSellR discontinued the 3X amount for Photons that were listed over some YardSales. No further word on that. The Photon give-away is back up and now you can cancel a giveaway if the person whose name appears is not appropriate for sending a advertisement to i.e. a corporation membership, political figures, etc. For example, Salvation Army came up as a friend the other day and I had no way to get around them to get to the friends behind them on the list. So, I sent them a Photon. Now we have a way to cancel and it is a great improvement.
Our links on the YardSellR app board (http://www.facebook.com/yardsellr) are not bringing up our YardSellR pics – not sure if that is a Facebook blip or a YardSellR setting change?
Facebook decided to tweak the Message system again – now our “Sent” messages are in the drop down menu “above”. Only found by trial and error – no notice sent out.
Some sellers were having trouble listing – I saw posts from four hours ago. YardSellR posted on their Yard App wall that they were working on the problem. No post yet to confirm that all is well.
Saw someone yesterday offering to sell Photon Gifts for $1.00 and there is a new trend to internally swap those Photon Gifts amongst the Sellers so “someone” might have a chance at that $50.00 Photon dollar gift that appears every now and again. Seems counterproductive to the original intent of the Photons to me. No comment from YardSellR on this latest trend.
It used to be if we cancelled our listings – the product would move quickly to the top of the front page and the Block Board. Well, now that is not appearing to be the case and the work around for the Boosting dollars is now out foxed. There appears to be no “Recent Listings” on the front page – it is divided between Blocks, What you might Love, and Everything. Not sure what the criteria is for the top listing of any of those i.e. what makes one Block appear at the top of the page and others lost in the maize? And what is “What you might Love”? And, what is “Everything”? So, for the first time, I boosted one of my items this morning. Going to be interesting to see what that brings to the table.
I found a very very well done article on YardSellR as I was wandering around the net this morning. Best I have seen yet. http://sallystrove.hubpages.com/hub/Shop-Yardsellr
What did I find that was “fun” on YardSellr?
This is a gorgeous piece of hand craft, just love it:

And, if would starve myself for about two months on a water diet – I, maybe, could accept the photons she offered me to help me buy this dress:

And, years ago I used to buy pottery my children called the “ugly” collection. I could spot this pottery driving by a yardsale at 60 miles an hour. It was years before I realized that Southern Potties/Blue Ridge were one in the same and the wonderful story of how they brought girls down from the hills, who had zero education, to paint these designs. Then “I understood” and truly appreciated all the nuances of Blue Ridge Pottery (and that my collection was actually worth some money – sorely disappointed my children. *G*
