I have sold four items in last week... Down to last 20 or so on listing... It is like watching your boat fill with water and know that land is too far away to even try...
So depressing... I am looking for a good, no great new site to take my books stamps and treasures, where the little guy is still appreciated! Let me know if you find it first, send me a message in a bottle...

That boat has already left the dock, and sunk.
Spread your wings and fly to the postings on AW board under Other Online auctions. There you will find posts about how some are doing at other sites. Decide for yourself or try a few. Don't be sad. This is a great new chance to find out just what you can do. experiment a bit and try new stuff out. Some won't work but you may get the shock of your life. There is life after Yahoo, I know.

I can totally relate to how you are feeling. Been listing on Yahoo for 2 years and couldn't figure out what to do after that. I had over 700 auctions running - this was a cool hobby! However, I did find a new home and Yahoo throwing me out turned out to be a good thing.

Hey you guys, no one was thrown out! Yahoo gave, it's time to give back to clean the site up, We need you, we miss you, we can make it work!!
Think of working outside the home and what it would cost you. Hopefully you can find in these other free sites you found in Yahoo as long as Yahoo gave free commerce.
To me the fee's insure online safty, not just for me but the buyers who made us what we are, go ahead take them with you, they will sneak back and more new members will follow, safely. Not a free for all site as Yahoo was once considered.

Rolllanotherone:
Why are you such a Yahoo cheerleader? Really, I belong to a couple different bulletin boards about auctions and while we would have stayed at Yahoo until the BIG ANNOUNCEMENT, sales were never that good! I do not care who you are or what you sell, Yahoo has never had that many bidders. You keep saying "We" like you work for them or have some vested interest. C'Mon.
