I used StayAway for 1 MONTH! My experience with them was that a full 50% of my auction winners REFUSED to go to their web site & enter personal info!

tomwiii: w@w! That is some incredible info you just shared. I wonder if eBay is already aware of same, via FVFs -- and if they will advise Andale to do something with the automated emails.

I do not and will not use Andale or any other third-party (i.e. non-eBay) site to enter send-to or any other personal information, even if Andale "partners" with eBay. If I see an Andale auction, or any other that requires the above, I'll move on.
I realize some of these services may assist sellers, and, even if they lose my money, still save them money in the long run, and that's fine. That's their choice, and this is mine.
Also, I too keep all active content (Java, Javascript, ActiveX) off when browsing 99% of sites, and that 99% includes eBay 100% of the time, so any images that depend on JS to load are never seen by me.
What can I say, I'm very much a no-frills browser, and a no-frills buyer.

What's being done in the name of direct marketing nowadays is crazy.
The above are all just my opinions, except where I cite facts as such.
Oh, I am not dc9a320 anywhere except AW. Any others are not me.
Is eBay is changing from a world bazaar into a bizarre world?

My experience with them was that the CS reps were EXTREMELY NICE but CLUELESS!
Also, I got the impression that NOBODY really had ever LAUNCHED AN AUCTION before! There were too many missing or screwed-up options! Now, the auctions launched by StayAway are WAY TOO BUSY & CLUTTERED!
Why PAY them for something DONE MUCH BETTER AT AW FOR FREE??????!!!!
