Perhaps the sellers at BV do not like to be reminded that it takes about a lot of items listed to get a single sale on average on BV ( 1.4% sell-thru listed on BV site )? It's about the same at the other free sites too. Perhaps the 'Largest Inventory Wharehouse' addition is the culprit? A personal dig but Dim made the same digs when Yahoo's listings were shrinking daily and the numbers there were posted. BV just happens to be the largest free auction site and the largest usually gets the lion's share of the attention. I sense a lot of frustration that no site has put together a successful formula that could attract both buyers and sellers after the demise of Yahoo and I think it manifests itself in a lot of the quasi-negative postings about the free sites.
