Go back to Yahoo Auctions! They dropped their fees & are 100% free to sell! No listing fees, no selling fees.
However, I would advise you to email or mail your customers and advise them of your move. If you don't tell them, they won't come.
Alot of traffic has increased over the months since they went free again. I don't know about you, but when I sell an item for $1,000 and don't have to pay any fees for it, that's pretty good for me!

That a good idea if your items are set up for bulk listing. Don't expect a decent sell-through rate, but free listing are FREE listings.

I use Yahoo to direct people to my store. I do get a lot of clicks from this and sales also. I sell a few things on Yahoo but not much but it is free advertising.

"Why Bother with Ebay?" Umm, because people actually go there and buy stuff. If I didn't want to make any money I might list on Yahoo but I'm in this to make a few nickles.

Are you implying that Yahoo spun off Yahoo auctions from the rest of Yahoo because I would doubt that Ebay is in a position to buy all of Yahoo.
