It's only a very small site but it has a loyal following. It's easy to use and the service is fantastic. I thought I'd give them a go and have listed over 350 items this month all the way from Australia. I am delighted with the number of sales I've got. No listing fees if you list more than 100 in a month, and a small FVF. It's slightly weird but that is what they are all about. A lack of categories but you'll find somewhere to fit your listing in. Nothing worse than a site with 500 categories and most of them don't have a single listing. I'm giving them all I've got for 6 months and I bet I won't be disappointed like I have been with many other sites lately. By the way, they've been around for a few years.

Popula is a charming site. I listed 5 items yesterday and have received one bid already. I'm lining up another 95 items for February so I can take advantage of the free listing for 100 items in one calendar month deal.
It is not for every seller, of course, but if your merchandise is vintage, or quirky, or (I cringe as I write this) groovy, then it might be worth a shot.
The "Ask Mama" advice column is a crack up, and even their TOS are funny. It is refreshing to find a site with so much personality.

You're right Misscandle. Popula is getting bigger and better every day. One of my listings got 386 hits in 10 days and sold for a very decent price.
