    That should read "Try to sell online for free".
    Another with an ad campaign reliant on spam, good grounding.:mad:

    I don't mind paying for a site to host my listings.

    It means they can pay for advertising that brings buyers in, creates a household name, and so on - rather than trying to focus their spam campaign on sellers and neglect to realise that they need buyers before anyone will make any sales at all.

    You just can't do that without someone paying for something.

    I just had a look. I picked out a random item, a plug adapter that I can buy in a pound shop, priced at £1.50, when you eventually get to the postage it is £7.99:eek:, presumably this is for up to several items but there doesn't appear to be any info on that.

    Any figures on active users? Just in case this thread stays up for a while.
