i wanan cut down on cost in promoting on ebay do i really need to pay the 1 dollar for the bold or can it still be viewed a lot without hte bold meaning is paying for the bold that big a diff?
Yes you can do it without. I still get viewers and bidders and don't use hardly ever, even at other sales sites.
Don't use them if they are a burden I would only bother with any of the upgrades if you can guarantee a large sale, ie: its something very valuable to you.
