I know this review comes pretty early since Bidamount Live ( BDL) has just started up a few hours ago, but this is the Internet and things are going Viral or going into the bin.
But first things first:
The BDL site does Looks great ..is easy to navigate .. and the language tool ( i only checked on German and English) makes you confident to use it and breaks down the language barrier .
So this is to Peter .... you and the people behind this Idea working on it and making BDL possible ,did a great Job.
How desperate this site whas needed ?? i dont know . Lots of people complain about Ebay ..if they all sign up on BDL that would be great ... but in reality you dont change horses in the middle of a Battle ...and making a living out of selling things online is a battle belive me.
So people give it a chance and lets just try something new..
Yes i want BDL to work...yes i wanna sell my stuff there ...for me its ok if its a slow Burner develops and takes 2 Years to become a great Marketplace .. But this has to start NOW ... members are needed people who sign up we need stuff that can be bougth to resonable prices in the Shops .
This can become the perfect Online market Place for Asian Antiques ..it really has the potential.
So Sign up Today !!!

Has anyone else not been able to register as a buyer and seller using the same email address? I tried using different passwords but it seems I need two email addresses.
🤣 If I get a reply to the query I sent, I will share what is said.
It will take some time to grow a community. I see there are some things up for sale already!
It will take awhile for traffic to increase enough for auction listings. Unless, there are some genuine items you are willing to part with for considerably under market value, buy it now is the way to go. I think the site allows offers. Not sure. JT
@loveli4236 to my understanding you can negotiate on a fix price . its the sellers choice to do so ...however sellers commision must be payd based on the price that is displayed on the website.
There are some things that I do not understand.
I can’t see, on Bidamount, any link to Bidamount Live.
Why that?
I think that Bidamount is visited by many people; instead, how many people do know about the existence of Bidamount Live? It should be linked with evidence on Bidamount IMO.
I have not registered yet because some unclear points. It is required the URL to the shop of the vendor. What that means? Is it only devoted to people who have his own site? I do not have a vendor site. People like myself will not be able to sell if the URL to a vendor site is required.
In my opinion, on the page of each item there should be the name of the vendor. Not everybody would take care of checking the name of the vendor. If the name of the vendor is directly shown in the item description page, there are more probabilities for good vendors to draw interest to the object.
This is what I think for what have seen up to now.

The art of calligraphy - and for the ancient Chinese it certainly was an art - aimed to demonstrate superior control and skill using brush and ink.
