The fun went to alternative sites like Bonanzle! Our sales there last month was only $80 less than eBay and guess what?? Our bill was $61 less!! Plus there is the atmosphere that eBay had in the late 90's, and management is responsive and involved.]]>

Oh well eBay's loss is Bonanzles gain! Bonanzle.com should breat 50,000 users within a day or 2 and within a week or 2 it will be the 3rd largest auction site surpassing ecrater. And it is all due to folks that eBay has driven away. These are the folks like us that were there on eBay back in the 90's when they couldn't keep the site up because of the rapid growth such as Bonanzle is enjoying now. eCommerce is fun, affordable and profitable again on Bonanzle!]]>

The only thing I will add is I wish the fees equated to 13%. Our overhead selling there is 23-25%!! That is why our inventory on feebay is shrinking fast as we can afford it and growing on Bonanzle. ]]>
