Hey everyone!
I am thinking of putting some of my bears on Bear Pile for adoption. 
I would love to hear what people think of Bear Pile.  Usually I put my bears on ebay but I was thinking on trying Bear Pile.  What does everyone think?
Love to hear from you all soon.

I am on bear pile.  It is a good place to be seen.  I think they say it is the top site to come up when you Goggle artist bear.  Even when I auction bears I still put a listing there.  You are not aloud to mention ebay.  I say the bear will be auctioned, please see my website for details.  I think bear pile is great.

I agree with Joanne, I haven't been a member long and it has given me great exposure. I have sold 99% of my work , and it has brought custom orders. You can give it a try see what happens. I know you will like Bear Pile. It took me a while to decide, I'm so glad I did!

Bear Hugs,

It's only $10 a month with no contract - a no brainer... TRY it!!

I'm not there now but will be again when I've got more bears to list!

How does the no contract thing work?  Do you have to pay it monthly or does it bill you automatically so you have to cancel it?  I was thinking about trying this as well but if I try it for a few months and then I have no bears to post or I have an upcoming show then I won't have anything to post so do I just not pay that month so my bearpile site doesn't exisit until I have more?  I'm confused and the site doesn't really explain.

hmmmm, ok. I think I will try it, expecially if it gives good exposure, as paying $10 a month is worth its weight in gold for marketing purposes..... its just getting people to know that you are here!

I LOVE Bear Pile. My creations have been selling really well there and I am using it more than ebay now that ebay has upped their final value fee to 9%.
Amber, once you are signed up you get a notice a few days before your fee is due to be paid each month. If you don't pay it then your page is no longer visible to the public - works great if you know you are going to be away for most of a month then you just don't pay that month and when you get back just go to the Bear Pile web site and make the PayPal payment and your page is up again - everything is still there so you don't have to reload it all.

Hi Edie

Thanks for the information.  I think it's a great idea.  By the way I love your Jungle.  The lion is beautiful.

Me two, too...Thanks Edie!
I've been thinking about Bear Pile but wasn't sure how they worked, and billed. 
As Laura Lynn said, a no brainer.  I can do that!  bear_grin
Thanks!

I joined a few months ago and to be honest I think its brilliant

I thought at $10 try it for a month and if its not for me I haven't lost much but the exposure is fabulous  :dance:

BearPile is a great place to get exposure for your bears and to sell them!! It's easy to set up an account and easy to use. I love it!!!
