Craigslist.org. No fees but you are limited to fixed price format so not strictly an auction site but it is an eBay alternative especially if you would like to sell locally and save money on fees and shipping.
Also, Amazon.com Marketplace. I hate how Amazon.com will show tons of dead and obsolete listings from third party sellers but from the sellers perspective, its a place where they can get great exposure.

I sold 50 things on Amazon marketplace since February without even trying. definately the number 2 site after eBay.

eCrater is pretty cool. It's got easy integration with Google Checkout, and the eCrater side of things is free. Not really an "auction" site though, more like a conglomerate of individual online stores.
I actually sold a item on a site called atomicmall.com. The cool thing about this site is you can import all of your eBay items to it, so you don't have to spend tons of time relisting.
Yes, I still sell a ton of more stuff on eBay but each item I sell somewhere else makes me more money and I am moving more product. Try moving your stuff to atomicmall.com, I have sold 5 items this week. That's no where near what I sell on eBay but it's a start to a alternative site.
I owned a store on eBay and was listing lots of auction items when for no reason after they changed the feedback for buyers I had well over 500 pos feedback one buyer decided to leave me a bad feedback and eBay decided to supend my sales for 30 days the feedback is not right bith buyers and sellers should have a said good or bad and if i sell one item a week somewhere else its alot better then 20 items with all the headaces from eBay
