Why people don't buy from me?

    Hey there people..
    Look at my thread here: http://forums.digitalpoint.com/showthread.php?t=548251

    It's a good price for those goodies and yet no one bought anything from me :(

    Perhaps because I cannot use Paypal?
    Paypal has a "send-only status" for my country unfortunately and I can only use MB..
    But MB is great too..

    Likewise, I had other very nice deals... but no buyers :(
    Please I feel very frustrated these days.. I can't really do any business because I don't have Paypal to receive..etc

    Can anyone help me with some solutions and ideas?
    Thank you so much for your kind help,
    - Wakish -

    !!! UPDATED !!!

    After some search, I found these to be best accepted as Paypal alternative than MB.
    Which one would you recommend me?

    1) http://www.bidpay.com (Seemed to be closest to paypal ??)
    2) http://www.paypay.com
    3) http://www.neteeler.com
    4) http://www.propay.com

    Can you get 2Checkout where you are? Some people are more willing to pay with 2CO than moneybookers in my experience (not sure why, just something I've noticed).

    Also, your iTrader is low at the moment - maybe people will be more willing to buy when you have built up a little more iTrader.

    I would have been interested in buying but you don't do PayPal so...

    @Shinoda.Mike:
    That would be a nice option, but it's quite diffcult to search for such a joint partnership..

    @etali:
    How can I earn more iTrader if people don't buy from me? :D lol..


    Any other solutions or advice dear friends?

    You can earn more iTrader doing link exchanges. Take a look at this sub-forum: http://forums.digitalpoint.com/forumdisplay.php?f=53
    And for that, you don't need MB nor PayPal :D

    Thanks for the advice..

    But right now, the most important thing for me is to get a solution to do business without a Paypal..
    (iTrader is subjective since it only applies to this forum ;) )

    I won't use moneybooker because it takes a few days to verify an account - and every time I want to purchase something I want it now - I don't want to wait.

    I imagine most people would be the same.

    Some time selling at very lowest cost is a problem as people start suspecting, so make a reasonable price and do some promotion targeting your specific niche.
