I am always blathering on about Yahoo, but have to report that I listed 13 items on Ebay 10 days ago give or take.
1/2 of them closed today, the rest close tomorrow. Every one of them has sold, all but one for far more than I anticipated.
I will be bery graciously paying my ebay bill this month, credit where credit is due.

Congrats to you VeryModern! I think things are finally starting to pick up. I know that my auctions are ending with multiple bids, whereas over the summer I was lucky to get my starting bid price! Hope it's a sign of things to come.

Credit due to the BUYERS, who have finally come back to the site to BUY for a change, instead of just window shop.

yeah, I have had a bad deadbeat problem on ebay, probably 1 in every 3 or 4 auctions. I generally only run a few auctions on ebay a month but this is my experience over the last 6 months, limited as it is.
Today's bids seem good based on the fast responses and everything has multiple bids so I feel I could sell to bidder #2 if there is a default.
It might just be that I am in high tide, but I just had to note that the turnout this week was the most impressive I have seen in a long while. I was not selling anything spectacular. I expected 90% of it to go for the opening bid (if I got an opening bid) and instead I have 4,5,6,7 and 8 bids on each.
Gotta love that!
