Several auction sites are offering storefronts. I wish we could talk about all of them but I know one site is off limits (will that change 11-1? )
So of Carnaby, Epier, Yahoo, Edeal and others, are any of them worth it?
I guess we should include Ebay and Amazon in this just to be as complete as possible.

Carnaby is definetly worth it! I can't sound "promotional" but you should just go there and check it all out for yourself. Also, they added a new feature where you can import listings from epier, bidville, ebay, and another one with the click of a button.

I have tried several of them, but I only really have done pretty well with Auctionweiser's eBay's, and eDeal's. I find that they have the most customizable features than the rest.

We are pleased with our Epier storefront thus far. The set up is easy as is listing items. You can choose catagory listings up to twenty,and organise the products you offer, and your items are organised nicely. At present there are templates to choose from each with shopping cart. You can choose to run storefront items at the same time in your auctions with a buy now feature. They charge $9.95 per month, and then give you a FVF credit up to that amount and a $5.00 auction enchancement credit per month. Picture hosting is included, and you can list up to a thousand items. Listing is easy, you can of course add your on backround or choose from thier selection, coming soon they say we will be able to add music to the storefront. Check out storefronts there to see the format etc.....

I gave up on my eBay store... very slow sales (compared to regular auctions), not worth $9.95 per month, in my opinion.

Has anyone looked at TIAS.com lately? They have been running store building systems online since 1995. You can list on eBay and Yahoo! auctions. The stores are all tied into the same database, so the shopping cart works across 700+ different merchants and all of the listing are also exported to about 1800 classified ad Web sites as well. Kind of cool.
You can list as many items as you want, each item can have up to 8 photos, no extra cost.
