Pragmatically, after I paid my $50, I worked hard at creating the store etc, and have had one sale. I have relisted half of my stock back on ebay and have sold three in one day, with far more looking at my other items.
Wake up, and smell the Typhoo, and don't be so nieve. One market (UK) is not representative of other markets. And as for your ridiclous statgement about free lunches, do not be so quick to assume that just because a negative comment is made about ebid, people are looking for free lunches. That attitude reflects the pro-ebid "give peace and chance" meets kum-by-ya. I want ebid to succeed. It is actually in my interest that it does, so step back and be a little more objective and make ebid invest as much energy as ebay, who will still outdo ebid hands down. But they won't becasue they will always have the good and descent sellers doing a ra-ra for them, and do the work they should be doing!
