Online Auction Link Buying Tips @ Link Auction House Australia.
Link Buying Tips :
Buying merchandise through Link Auction House Australia is an unique
experience. This section gives you advice about how to best use Link
Auction House Australia as a buyer.
Understand the Item You Bid On , Link
Auction House Australia strives to gives sellers the ability to describe
their site without revealing the URL. Therefore, if a description of an
item is unclear, be sure to clarify the item description with the seller
before you bid.
Sellers have a life :
Have patience after you win an auction. Some sellers may be on the other
side of the world sleeping when you win their auction. They may have had
a family emergency, or they may just be extremely busy. If you don't here
from the seller in a day or two send them another message. Make sure you
give your username and the auction number.
We often get asked how long before a seller will get the links up. The
answer is anywhere from 10 minutes to 5 or 6 days. If you are worried,
ask the seller before you place the bid the time table you should expect.
Protect Yourself From Fraud :
Most of the Links for sale on Link Auction House Australia are offered by
private individuals. As such, these sellers are unregulated which makes
protecting yourself from fraud extremely important. Pay with credit card
if given the choice. PayPal now offers a way for buyers to pay with their
credit card even if they are not members. Pay attention to feedback ratings
and ask questions.
If you paid with PayPal you can
file a claim against the seller if they do not live up to their end of
the bargain. One member has told us this works for any paypal transaction,
you just need to enter the transaction and then explain to PayPal what's
happening and they will try to negotiate a solution with the other seller.
No guarantees, but the threat of a frozen or cancelled PayPal account
will "encourage" most dishonest sellers to follow through on their
auctions.
Remember :
Link Auction House Australia is only a venue and we do not represent
the ability of a seller to complete the transaction or the quality of
the items. Auctioneers caught practicing deceptive selling will be banned.
However, as with all auction sites, a dishonest person can always get at
least one auction up.
Be Courteous To Other Users :
Treat other members with courtesy, especially via e-mail. Remember,
new buyers and sellers come to this site everyday. It is in everyone's
interest to treat the with respect so they keep coming back. Be sure
to treat everyone with the courtesy that you expect to receive.
Make Note Of Auction Details :
Write down the username of the seller, the auction number, the item
description, and the time, date, and price you bid on the item. Then
contact the seller as quickly as possible to begin completing the
transaction if you are the high bidder.
Link Auction House Australia Links Buying Rules of Thumb :
Look for Links in or close to your web site's category.
Don't just pay attention to PR. Look at all the site's metrics to
determine your optimum bidding level.
Ask the seller questions if in doubt about the auction you want to bid on.
Look for sellers with plenty of good feedback from other buyers.
If you win the auction, contact the seller immediately with your username
and auction number that you won. Continue to message the seller each day
until you get a response.
The fewer outbound links on the Links page the better. However, you need to
be realistic; a strong site can easily have 40 to 50 outbound links.
Anything under 20 outbound links is a real find. Remember, outbound
link totals are based on the number of unique or different domains that
are linked off of the page where the Link will be located.
Pay attention to any guarantees offered by the seller. If no guarantee is
offered ask for one before you bid.
Know the link parameters: Maximum Characters and words, link categories
accepted, and the links term (eg: 1 month , 2 months , 3 months) .
