Player Auctions has taken over the online game auction market, sure its not a huge market but there are a few of us around here who are very interested in online game auctions.
Why PA took over?
ebay started removing EQ (EverQuest) auctions and banning users who were posting EQ auctions more than once (after a warning).
PA also has cheaper listings and is run by a game company and has a better idea of what is going on with games.
I think for now niche auction sites like this are the way to go, I don't think a overall auction site can compete with eBay, however as PA has proven small aimed auction subject sites can kick eBay's butt.

I'll definately be taking a better look at that site. Thank you for posting it.
I don't know the legalities involved in selling the Everquest things but if eBay took the stance on it they take with other stuff they simply try to rid the site of everything that could possibly be illegal by eliminating all of it.
Generally speaking when I think of eBay the words 'control freak' come into mind as well as a few others. I know they're the biggest game in town but I see evidence daily that they're not the ONLY game in town, LOL.
