Just wondered if any of you were using BV as a source of supply. I go back from time to time to see w hat's happening...a little hard to see the forest for the trees in my categories due to so many small items. They have a lot of listings in glass now, though...some of it tempting.
I also noticed that many of the buyers and sellers now have FB points in the 10's and even 100's, implying that transactions are happening after all. This doesn't appear to be FB transferred from other sites.

I was going to bid on a piece of electronics at BidVille. The seller had a 200 rating. I decided to check his feedback. All 200 of his positives were earned at BidVille. The problem is all 200 of them came from the same buyer, and all 200 items were 20 cent sports cards!
The moral here? Even a high FB is no guarantee of an upstanding seller

Too many little auction sites are allowing auctions for feedback, padded feedback, etc.
To list and sell sports cards individually for .20 or less each is pure feedback begging IMO. One even allows copyrighted recipes to be auctioned for feedback. Tell me that's legit. LOL!!
There's nothing wrong with buying at one site, especially if you can get the item dirt cheap and selling it at another for a profit.
I love those sales.
