<p>[QUOTE=&quot;lordmarcovan, post: 2878382, member: 10461&quot;]Thank you for posting this.</p><p><br /></p><p>Eh, phooey.&nbsp; I tried using that &quot;mobile friendly checker&quot;, but the &quot;analyzer&quot; only runs up to 60%, and then the page stops.&nbsp; It shows a refresh symbol at the top of the page.&nbsp; But that does nothing.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]689264[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>I was (<i>am</i>) concerned, because I listed a bunch of stuff at 65c starts with no reserve, and while it&#039;s cheap stuff - even junk in some cases - I&#039;m gonna be doing a lot more &quot;giveaways&quot; than intended, with free shipping to boot!&nbsp; I&#039;ve got 65c &quot;starter&quot; bids on a lot of stuff, but most auctions have no other movement five days in.&nbsp; For example, I listed a low grade Seated quarter more than 24 hours ago with a 65c start and free shipping - way below melt - and haven&#039;t gotten a single bid on it yet.&nbsp; It&#039;s a junky coin, but usually it would have at least two or three bids by now.</p><p><br /></p><p>What concerns me is that I&#039;m doing some things I didn&#039;t realize were no-nos.&nbsp; I have HTML links in my descriptions (to Krause catalog data for the world coins), and furthermore I put my images into the descriptions in addition to using the eBay picture hosting.&nbsp; I have never trusted eBay&#039;s picture hosting- the javascript or whatever never used to work properly for me half the time when I was browsing other people&#039;s auctions.&nbsp; So I&#039;ve always put a redundant set of images into the descriptions of my own listings (the same pictures, but hosted on another site).</p><p><br /></p><p>I just picked up my phone and used the eBay app to find one of my auctions (making sure I was logged <i>off</i> of my eBay account), and it looked OK, but now I&#039;m nervous.</p><p><br /></p><p>Amusingly, <a href="http://www.ebay.com/itm/152734961131?ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT&amp;_trksid=p3984.m1558.l2649" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.ebay.com/itm/152734961131?ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT&amp;_trksid=p3984.m1558.l2649" rel="nofollow">one item</a> has now surpassed the price I was asking for it here on CT, but that&#039;s an exception to the rule.&nbsp; Most if not all of the rest are doing very poorly, though they&#039;re in that period I always called the &quot;mid auction doldrums&quot;.</p><p><br /></p><p>So I don&#039;t know if I&#039;m losing visibility or not?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
