Club99 Rules & Guidelines

1. Club99 sellers MUST have a current *ME* page with the official link.

2. List at least TEN auctions on Saturday/Sunday of the dates specified on the sign-up link with Club99 in the title that includes an invitation or link to your *ME* page on all of your event auctions...

For Example: Come see more Club99 auctions by clicking on my *ME* page OR You can put a standard link or banner in your auction page with an invitation that takes the buyer to your seller's *ME* page.

The goal is to get people to your *ME* page to check out your stuff and then travel to other Club99 auctions.

Please note!!!!! The official Club99 link cannot be put in the actual auction, only on the seller's me page. It is against EBay's linking rules.

3. All auctions with Club99 in the title must end on Saturday or Sunday of the following week and start at 99 cents NO RESERVE. Please do not put Club99 in regular auction titles if the starting bid is NOT 99 cents. Club99 auctions with “Buy It Now” or 3 or 5 or 10 day durations are OK as long as you list the required TEN pure Club99 - 7 day auctions. Anything goes, as long as it’s legal on EBay.

Even though it may be tedious, please check your loaded club99 auctions for current shipping information, to make sure the link works or special banners are functioning correctly that bring people to your *ME* page. This is especially important with re-listed items with old banners or information regarding past events.

Again, please do not put Club99 in the title if the price is NOT 99 cents. Even if you have 99 cent auctions, you still must have at least ten with Club99 in the title to be on the website list. List as many 99 cent Club99 auctions as you want or just list TEN good ones starting at 99 cents with Club99 in the title. The sky is the limit! Mix and match with some regular auctions in conjunction with the sale. Just keep the title clear and the prices right.

If you don't do these things, you will be removed from the list. Mark your calendar to remind you to list on the correct day. Start early to be ready for the event.

Remember, the web ring does not work if you are on your own without links, etc, as it contains all the seller links and the current search for Club99 that brings more people to you. Free advertising.

Club99 auctions offer the seller a greater level of exposure for their listings. This is made possible by our linking to other seller's *ME* pages. Make sure that you have the current link and logo on your *ME* page, preferably at the top during the actual event. If you have a store, try mentioning it in your description, too.

FOR ALL SPECIAL EVENTS, THE RULES ARE BASICALLY THE SAME, EXCEPT:

You only need to list one pure Special Event item without a reserve or buy it now using the Special Event tag in the title, i.e. LUV99, MOM99, BOOK99 etc. You can list as many as you want as long as they fit into the special event, and have the tag.

All auctions must have .99 in the listing amount: 1.99, 2.99, 3.99, 9.99, 19.99, etc. without a reserve price.


Try putting a counter on your *ME* page to see if people are going to it. It is fun to see how many buyers come to browse your auctions. Counters on auctions are fun to watch, too.

I made some changes so that we can add this link to Facebook! It will be great to have more exposure. Tempest is taking care of it for us, so we don't have to do anything else!

Don't leave a message here, but if you have any suggestions or comments, just PM me! Thanks everyone!

The HOT99 dates were wrong, so I had to go and fix them. Just now noticed it when I was checking out the dates for DAD99! Oh well, at least I caught it!

[mswiser]

I removed BOOK99 for December, I just thought it would be too much over the Holiday's. Next year we will only have 2 BOOK99 and adjust the Special Events for Summer.

How does that sound?

I ALSO REMOVED THE BOOK99 FOR SEPTEMBER TOO, WE WILL HAVE THE 1ST ONE IN JANUARY! THAT DOESN'T MEAN YOU CAN'T LIST THEM DURING CLUB99!
