Just saw it today at Y**oo! Does anyone list there? How is business over there? Also it makes me wonder how they survive with no revenue coming from the seller.

Thanks.

Y@hoo makes their money the same way Google does -- ads, ads, ads, ads, ads...

They are desperate for sellers so they can attract some buyers. It sounds like the last gasp for Yahoo Auctions. They've tried for 5+ years to get their auctions happening with no luck other than in Japan where they were the first kid on the block.

I tried it and NO SALES... =(

Barely anyone looked at my adds too. Counters was very low.

Anyone else's input?

In my category...

Ebay 500,000+ listings (half are crap)
the "other guys" 5,000+ listings (99% are crap)

a small number of crap listings brings a small number of crap buyers. I must say those other guys certainly do offer sellers good value for the money!

P.S. lady-bee, I always wanted to thank you for my first neutral! You gave it to me just over 5 years ago (but my deadbeat partner deserved it);-)
