You miss my point - you know about me, I am talking about other people not members here not NVA owners. Does Black Friday motivate them. I am interested to see how ebay in general reacts to Black Friday. Amazon jumps in head first.

I understand but if it was me - even if I didn't know you or was a member here
I would be more inclined to buy b stock during normal times that BF - That's what I meant - (but that's just me and me not caring about how thinks look so not bothered by your type of B stock - mostly visually impaired as I only care about performance )

In all fairness I never even looked at eBay during BF and wouldn't know
if they are doing anything special
and yes most of my BF hunting in previous years was through Amazon
or direct retailers web pages

I thought you had listings with B stock items at ebay
like those BMUs with slightly misfit casings

But I understand that mine AP50 (before upgrade) would never go to eBay due to serious(ish) visual impairment

well I am sure that if you want to offer true one day discount for BF through eBay
I would work but you would have to advertise somehow
can you broadcast to your customers (like through ebay or any other means) ??
Easy way you be to have Facebook page for NVA and once a year pay them 50gbp
to advertise your BF offer to plp with interest in HiFi

The point is Black Friday is its own promotion, as you have said yourself. People on line search Black Friday bargains and the type of item. In this case I presume they type hifi or speakers or amplifier. it is a small congregation on this forum and as I have been saying we are banned from others

well you are right but you will never come any where near top of the list in google search engine
so you can post an BF offer on your web page, people can search for hifi BF offers, but unless they will search for NVA specifically they will never find your offer...
As I said for people without knowledge of your brand Facebook offers the easiest way to reach them.

I started to look for some earbuds recently and liked one earbud manufacturer FB page and become active there a bit
now FB on daily basis offer me others - so FB connected me to way more earbuds ;]]] that I would find myself

FFS the search is for Black Friday and hi-fi not for me. Will you please stop this we are going around in circles you have made your point.

Black Friday I ignore completely. Partly because I feel it's just one more marketing scam, and partly because I can always find what I want at a price that suits me due to some in-depth research on t'internet. Also VERY wary of half-price offers as they are often half the price of a price that ran from July 17 to August 17 ONLY to satisfy legalities.

Been looking for TIS for months as an upgrade, and now (or shortly), will have TIS throughout at a price I can afford.

I thought you meant doing it yourself - my misunderstanding
