OK...

If you want a good laugh.

1) Go to www.BidBay.com and make note of the number of current auctions.

2) Pick ANY major category.

3) Pick any sub-category with 50 items

4) Count the items being sold


I bet you'll be surprised at the results. I was!

There is nothing there, damn that is sad, no listed items just a Bidpay Store Special auction. Heather

edited to add, I ran through about 20 categories and not one single bid.

That was my point hcross... Looks like a lame attempt to pump up item count to me.

I went through many categories and the ones near 50 only have 1 or 2 items in them.

well, i checked on snowglobes... figuring it'd be nice to see a variety of pretty ones. The category page CLAIMED there were 50 of 'em and I was happy.

Then i got to the page listings -- there was an ad for a BidBay store -- $199 (no less!) but not a single listing for a snow gizmo.

So, i visited eBay -- there are 15 pages of listings (over 700 of the little darlings)... I'll be perusing for a while. *grins*

bye-buy!
