I hope you aren't using my listings as an example, you will not get a good count, not being nasty, just letting you know I am a fickle seller, I sell at live auctions(bid boards) too, rotate things back and forth.
If things appear slow online they're moving at a live auction.
Bid boards are easier so I consider it a vacation unfortunately they are also more costly since they are based on a 15-20% fvf. So a $10 item cost $1.50 -$2.00 plus the cards to hang items on are 4-10 cents each regardless if they sell. Most of our coins come from these places. Check your phone book, look for coin and stamp stores, if anyone advertises "Bid Board" or "Buy Board" go there, they're fun, dangerous on closing day but fun.=)

No it doesn't make sense.
Yahoo built their auction site more to attract traffic than with any intention to profit from later addition of fees.
But when hearing a few deluded people saying that the addition of fees would increase the level of sales at yahoo auctions ...
Well, when uninterested and uninformed executives hear "Win-Win solution" - that's all they care to hear.
