all of a couple dozen listings. come back when you have a couple
thousand coin listings.



Hmmmm...how many clients Bill Gates had when he first entered the
market?...
Everybody has to start from somewhere.



Bill Gates had millions of customers when he introduced his graphical
user interface. This was a massive mprovement to the arcane line
command system.


I was referring to the garage days Ira;-)
But even in your example, before he had "millions of customers" there was a
day that he had his *first* customer and in that day he was in the same
place as anybody starting a business!
Nobody is born with millions of clients, we all start with a couple a
customers and if our product is good then we gain success...

As far as this new auction company, if you really had an item you truly
wished to sell, would you list it there just because it was free? I
wouldn't. Wouldn't use Yahoo auctions either. Neither has the massive
exposure of eBay, even with ieBay's high fees and other issues.


Ira, I haven't even look at the site, neither I evaluated it.
I just wanted to point out that we all start at zero and evolve!

Too little too late. That's hpw I see it. Maybe if Microsoft opened an
auction site with MASSIVE advertising they might give eBay a run for
the money, but this peanut auction company? Not a chance in Hell of
making it.


Well, if you ask my opinion, I say that if someone with *really* much money
would like to open such a site, I believe he would cause problems to eBay
some time in the future...
I see it much like the Intel and AMD thing: for years AMD was the "poor
relative" compared to Intel but it came the time when AMD has a quite nice
share of the processors market...
Perseverance and a good, competitive product is the secret of the game
IMHO...
