Lots of items sell on Bonanza! You have some great products (in a very popular category) so hopefully you will be getting many sales soon. I will reach out to you directly with some tips.

Bonanza is actually really good but you need to put a little more work then eBay and Amazon .

Ebay and Amazon are more popular than Bonanza. They are household names, bonz is not. So the 1st place someone will go is ebay or amazon to look for something, then if they can’t find it, they will do an internet search and usually find one of our many promotions out there and that is how they find us here on bonanza.
Do items sell here? Yes, they do. Jut last night I sold a 35.00 bag that i could not sell on ebay for the longest time…. I usually make at least 3 sales a month or so…..while its not ebay, I am not stifled down by all the rules and regulations AND high fees of ebay! So even tho i may sell on ebay, i always come back to promote my items on bonanza. Plus the people here are just plain nicer than the other place :)

As someone said above…ebay and amazon are going to be first choices…
Then buyers search Google shopping…and in google shopping…reputation and ads are what gets you noticed and Time gets you reputation….this is a whole different experience than the big 2 sites…essentially what you learned at those sites, really won’t do you much good here…
You have been on bonz for 5 days…

Are your items in google shopping (Google Product search) did you opt for the advertising to send your items to google,
Are your items google compliant (Search optimized)
To gain reputation as a ‘store’
Fill out your booth details filled….
Fill in the information on your profile page in the "about me’ section
Personalize your avatar
Give your booth a name…and make a nice banner (as of now it says CAZDEALMAKER’s booth…you could always drop the word booth if you wish)
Check to see if your items are in google shopping
Check your feed to make sure everything is running smoothly…
If you have a FB business page…send a few items over there, tweet if you have an account..pin if you have an account..
It really is a whole different world without the big names behind you….you pay ebay to do it for you….all the things you pay the higher fees for, you more or less have to do yourself here…it’s a trade off…

It takes longer than six days to make your million $$ here. Ask for advice, it works.
