Are these offers reliable in the sense that a webhosting reseller purchaser could feel safe offering
the reseller service to website domain seeking customers with confidence.

I also noticed some of these sellers of reseller offers don't have an eBay seller history of
webhosting reseller service.. seems the seller suddenly started selling the reseller service.

How can these sellers sell the reseller option so cheap ?

The truth is they cant. I would honestly never trust someone selling web
hosting on ebay. If someone is offering web hosting on ebay, that can mean
a couple things:

1. That 'business' they are running is run by a 13 year old.
2. That 'business' was created 2 days ago.
3. That 'business' cant even pay for their own domain name or they dont
even understand how to get a domain.

I doubt that any of the people that sell hosting on ebay actually run their
own servers. They are most likely people that just made a deal with another
host like a referral program.

Would you trust a hosting business that dosnt even have a website to host
your data?

If you are looking for reliable reseller packages, you can email me at
sales DeleteThis @dynamohosting.net with your requirements as in disk space and
bandwidth, and I can get a quote back to you. We've been in business for a
year already with 99.9% uptime and excellent customer service.

Thanks,
Dan

Yes, absolutely. Razz"

They are reliable as anything else you buy, online, from someone you don't
know or haven't heard of. Its a shot in the dark.

You could buy it then resell it. So you would be the seller selling
reselling that you got from the seller selling reselling.

And, because you actually can ........ I always try to cut as many
middlemen out as possible. A reseller can get serverspace and bandwidth
cheaper in bulk than I can do for my puny little sites. I don't mind
hosting with a reseller who provides excellent customer service (or
other value-added benefits) because, IMO and ATME, the "big" guys are
too geeky to even understand if they bother to get back to you on an
issue. After a while, one starts thinking in binary terms and it
doesn't translate well to human language.

How's that for a Sunday morning brainfart?

It came across here as a Sunday evening brainfart!

Some folk just use eBay as another advertising medium. They have no
interest in that one sale - it's a loss leader. The aim is exposure for
their domain name.

But hosting is still hosting regardless of where you caught the link - buyer
beware.

My first and only Reseller account was with a company I found on eBay
called Advancewebpages.com . With the exception of a recent upgrade
glitch they have been EXTREMELY good to handle my hosting chores.
Their Support Team is second to none. They have always bent over
backwards to ensure that I get the problem solved as well as educate
me so I can become more self reliant. Don't know if they are still
eBay sellers but you would be wise to give them some consideration.
