3700 + 1/8
2874 1/14
Down over 22% in less than a week.
All of my auctions(175 left) are 1st bid buy. My sales are double for the week of 1/7 thru 1/13. This won't last. 1 really good week of sales out of almost 100 weeks is not a good ratio. If it happens 2 weeks in a row, I will be floored, 3 weeks in a row, I will have to think about when (if) it happens. But I must take in to count that I went in and lowered all my prices 20% right before the 10th. Not actually making much now, just trying to get liquid before the liquid runs out!

These numbers are awesome. Wonder if Wall Street is watching. YaFool might have really ripped its pants. I'm putting just a few things on Auxpal right now. Don't have time to really list now. But I like the ease with which you can list. With time it will grow. If you take your feedback with you it will automatically link others to your auctions on any site you reference.

I took a quick look at auxpal. They have more listed, but when I checked the closed portion of "books - nonfiction" I found nothing that had been sold. Also, all nonfiction lumped together? How is anyone to browse that sort of thing?

Hi Dimview
Thanks for your effort toward this. I think you are doing a wonderful job. keep it up.
I am collecting the data that you post and intend to do some analysis.... and send it to one of my friends at Business2.0
I just wanted to request you that incase you decide to quite collecting this data, kindly inform me at: [email protected] such that I can take up your job. Also, incase you have this data compiled in a worksheet, I was wondering if by any chance you could send that to me. I will appreciate your help.
I am not sure why you are doing this but whatever you are doing is good. I am involved in this just because I am not pleased with the way yahoo turned its back on us.

Hi keziak! As we speak now, AuXpal is expanding and listing more categories! As buyers get there and realize what is needed, all we do is e-mail them and usually (at least they HAVE BEEN) doing it! Customer Service is GREAT and we usually get back direct answers to our e-mails - not cookie cutter imitations like YooHoo!

Tomorrow's numbers should be interesting, since a lot of folks like me who reposted for a free week will be packing our bags tonight after closing and moving on.

Hmm....here's a scenario. Yahoo charges fees...Greedy sellers use up their free feedback bucks to run auctions.....ePAY buys YAHOO...greedy sellers have no free bucks to list on ePAY after....ePAY laughs all the way to the bank....

In reply to the quality bids gang, I might point out that to be fair and not discrimminate against anyone I listed the afro american flag on yahoo each time i listed the rebel flag the sales were 30 to one for rebel items to afro items ,if the rebel flag only sells then will excluding the listing of the afro american flag by cost be a racist act? There were similar statistics for the german ww2 items vs minority items
