I just checked the "Country Living Flea Market" site again, and finally found information on it. It isn't an auction at all, but basically a Classified listing, which you have to created on a web site page you can link to. Items run for 30 days, and there is no direct "bidding," just private negotiations between the seller and potential buyer via e-mail!!!!!

YUCK, I can just see endless, stupid, e-mails asking "will you take so much for your widget?"

NO THANKS not my idea of a place to sell!

PLUS as I posted on another thread, every time I have visited that site, my AdWare and SpyBot have alerted me and had to block ads and trackers they have!

So much for "Country Living"!

I'll spend my time more profitably elsewhere.

Apparently, they aren't ready for an auction commitment, and Classified ads are a dime a dozen, so I'd be surprised if much comes of the attempt of "Country Living's" 'Flea Market.'

It is definitely an approach which takes more time and interaction with the customer than I have time for.
