Great writeup!

eBay eliminated the Stores format so now there are 100M items on eBay. This figure is from AuctionBytes.com. That’s a lot of junk to search through.

Go WatchedItem.com!

Maybe I can use ebay again.

Does anyone still uses Ebay? Just long lists of *way* overpriced junk and ridiculous shipping charges. Seriously, there really isn’t much bidding anymore, it’s mostly buy-it-now.

So I guess that makes Ebay one EXPENSIVE shopping cart system.

I’ll pass.
