I have just been browsing the internet and found what appears to be a new model engineering auction site. [glow=red,2,300]www.railauction.uk.tp[/glow] It seems to follow the eBay style of auction site, but it says it is free!!  Only one item posted when I looked, shows how new it is I suspect. I intend to put things on there when I have something to sell. Why pay eBay fees?! It looks as if we can now do it for free!! ;D Regards, thetrainman. |

This may be pure coincidence but your user name appears to be the same as the guy who's just set up said website  |

Oh yes!!! He must be my evil twin! I was not sure about the forum's policy on advertising, but then again I stand to make nothing from the website... Do you think thats ok? |

Why pay eBay fees?
'cos I suspect that the 2 registered users are a considerably smaller potential customer base than wot you'd get on eBay.
Given time, however, it may develop into something worthwhile

Good luck, as Tel says you're up against a huge customer base in Ebay, but if you can keep the number of scams, hyjacked IDs and cons down, it'll be like a breath of fresh air after Ebay.

Hi lads, thanks for all you constructive comments!
I see from the last post from David Scott, he says about paypal not being a recognised world money. Does he mean on my site, or just in general?
Thanks again.
