well I never - amazon auction?

okay, okay, call me an idiot if you like but I've only just noticed that there is an auction area for amazon... I thought it was Marketplace only!!

What's best in your opinions??

REALLY thinking about putting all my CDs etc on there instead!

    I posted a thread about this a couple of weeks ago, responses weren't very helpful or positive and I know very few people with positive experience of amazon auctions as sellers.

    Shame really as amazon could probably wipe the floor with ebay if they really chose to!

    Good luck and let us know how you get on!

    Most buyers are the same :D That's why I prefer to use marketplace, it actually has some traffic ;)

    I've had a look once in a while and decided that there was nothing there and therfore no buyers ...then that vicious downward spiral.

    As Fay says if Amazon were willing to push this they would probably clean up. But I imagine for them to offer the same sort of service as on Marketplace it would be quite expensive especially with the rise in internet fraud.
