I just finished cancellind the last of my 300+ Yahoo Auctions. I, like others am jumping ship and going to a different site. Since most of the items I sell are under $5.00, listing fees will put me into bankruptcy. Funny thing is that I have a 500+ feedback rating on Yahoo (rndhouse1) for my, according to Yahoo, "junk" items. I have made many sales in the past where one buyer would by anywhere from 3-15 items at one time. I also had many, many, many repeat buyers.
I also reviewd my Yahoo BLACKLIST! BOY IS IT LONG!!!!!!!!!!!! I guess that's why Yahoo won't institute Final Value Fees instead of List Fees--way too many non paying bidders on that site. I experimented with other auction sites this past year and have had good success considering the very limited number of items I listed.

The last of my Yahoo!Wasteland auctions are winding down with just two hours to go.
The nine items have received a total of 12 pageviews and, not surprisingly, no bids. Under the 20-cent listing fee scenario that would have worked out to 15 cents for each pageview.
