Nice alternative for those of us fed up with ebay. Ebay needs some threats to it's stance in the marketplace. It has gotten to complacent being the only taco stand and needs the stiff competition. The way users, especially sellers, have been treated as of late, I for one am happy to see this.
My main issues with ebay are:
1. Changes to the feedback system which do nothing more than hurt honest sellers and enable dishonest buyers
2. New requirements the force you to use paypal, double dipping basically
3. Listing fees that have grown outrageously high
4. Poor customer service that refuses to address any issues
5. Creating an environment that only supports the large volume sellers and ignores the little guys that ebay was built on
There are numerous other little issues but those are my hot button items.

Well put. I agree! I reported an obvious shill bidder sportsam123. He jacked up the prices on everything I bought from him. He used the same two accounts to bid on all his items. Never any feedback between the accounts even though those accounts won 40% of his auctions. The item they won were offered at 2nd chance offeres for the max bid of the hard working ebay buyer. If they didn't bite on the 2nd chance the item would be relisted. I gave ebay the paper trail and all. At that time you could go back through all the bids and sales for 90 days. I gave them proof. Nothing was done. Got the canned response from ebay. Then I get screwed because the buyer of a Futaba 3pm FSPro radio hooked the battery up wrong. Fried it. It worked perfectly when I sent it to him. I tried calling the guy, e-mailing him to figure out what might be wrong with it. He would not talk to me. Went straight to the dispute center. RIght there I new he must of hooked it up wrong if he would talk to me about the radio. Nothing I could do. I was forced to take back a useless radio and money was
taken from me and returned to the buyer. I had no choice or say in the matter. You can sell something and put as is, no returns, all sales final. Don't mean crap. All they have to do is file a complaint saying the item was significantly different then described. The only thing that get thier attention is sales and what money they are getting. Whew! I feel better. No I don't now I'm pissed at then a-holes again. Where's the Corona? I'm checking out a different taco stand.
