    flea bay alternative?

    Anyone heard of this option???

    e-commerce site Bonanzle? If you're unfamiliar with it, it's a site where many disgruntled eBay users turned for an alternative place to sell their goods. Last year, it reached a million listings in 6 months and was voted the best eBay alternative according to Examiner.com. Growth continued from there, with the company surpassing 100,000 registered users in September, representing 5,000% growth in a year.

      Here is an opportunity for some as you can import your items from the flea and stop getting bit.

      While new a fresh, cost is half and there are not a lot of items yet listed.

        Thanks for the great tip, Ronald.

        After selling $250K worth of used original, and NOS Corvette and GM muscle car parts on eBay, I quit on November 22nd, of 2008....shortly after John Donahoe took over as CEO. I had a fun "retirement" business, until Donahoe took the helm. Much like Captain Edward Smith of the RMS Titanic, he has virtually run the mighty ship into an iceberg.
        For arguably one of the most successful businesses on the face of the earth, when Meg Whitman left as CEO, arrogance took over the corporate headquarters. What started as thousands of sellers leaving, snow-balled into hundreds of thousands leaving. The eBay stock value dropped right alongside sellers leaving. Many of the best parts sources in America, left....as they were "nickeled & dimed" to death.

        Hopefully this new site will return internet sales into a positive venture for both buyers & sellers.

            It is a very good alternative to flea bay. But I geuss most any thing is better than that mess. It seems they do nothing to police the site. If you take your time to reprt a verified fraud they do nothing to stop it. Tom

              The new site does not have a lot yet for C2. That will take time. The good news is that if you are a fixed price seller you can import your flea bag store into the new site for free. It even does craigs list imports, exports, and auctions but as you will guess, since an auction does not have a fixed price the site cannot guess what the price is so you have to input that. That takes time for the software to run, so don't expect it to take seconds.

              I wrote them a note and I expect they will listen, if they don't they will die a fast death. The flea has done everything to disappoint they could including lip service, saying one thing and doing nothing.

              I just hope the chrysler carb sellers and household oiler cans don't pollute, if they do, then by by too.
