Yestaerday was a grim day for all of us I am sure. Normally I am refreshing my auction page at least once an hour. There was no need to do that yesterday as buyers and sellers alike suspended thier ebay hobby for obvious reasons. I have tons of stuff to list but dont have the heart to do it now or for that matter a few weeks. I was simply horrified to see how many people made an attempt to list items related to the world trade center. Thanks god ebay cancelled every one of them!! Have a look. Please have some respect in these uncertian days!!

I totally agree with you about the slow sales and not really caring. Was counting on closings last night doing well (before the attack). They didn't and I don't care.
As for the World Trade Center listings, it was a poor, knee-jerk reaction by ebay. They let the terrorists score a victory by disrupting the free-market system.
