Sigh. I guess I'm not giving up on trying to offer serious suggestions if anyone from Yahoo Auctions is bothering to read this stuff. How about "tweaking" the system by offering some sort of discounting of Wallet credits if bought in advance? Offer could be good for a limited time, but of course might be repeated like the "funny money" credits were. What about $100 credits for $75 cash, $500 credits for $250 cash?
Sort of like season passes or discounted ticket bundles at an amusement park? Immediate real cash flow to book in the records, and an assurance of continued participation for a while by that user.
Would establish a system for trying to fine-tune what's left of the auctions function, sort of like Greenspan and the Federal Reserve Board do to the US economy with interest rate policy.
