There additional fees seem to be high. .75 to upload a picture. That seems to be very expensive. Final value fees seem inline.

I'm amazed nobody has mentioned Google Base and Google Checkout. I use Google Base now and I'm working on rolling out Google Checkout. You can't get better exposure than on the top of the first page of Google Search results! The great part is Google Base is free and Google Checkout has very low rates.

I agree with you, "Yup there's a whole lot of buyers on this site" but this site is less than 3 weeks old and they are going through the growing pain stages. The site was down but came back up with a newer look and with easier use. To me its worth a list or two and see what happens...weelndln

I agree with scoutwes. iOffer sucks. People buy, you get stuck with the commission and then the buyers NEVER PAY YOU. You have to wait 21 days to file a non-paying bidder report but in the meantine, iOffer has already billed you for the sales. Support there is non-existent. There is no phone number to call and they don't answer your emails!!!! DON'T WASTE YOUR TIME!!!!!!!

mathuntcollectibles said: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.

Does Atomic link to google base like ioffer.

I tried ecrater in 2007 and i didn't even sell one item.

This year I'm trying Ioffer but I can't get the item transfer feature to work.

etsy, ecrater, Amazon (duh), delcampe, rubylane, Alibris, AbeBooks.

What about www.sell.com or www.overstock.com Any thoughts?

In case there are any foreign speakers here, I know that Yahoo Auctions still operates in Japan. There may be other foreign language auction sites, as well.

I got my third NPB on Ioffer with zero sales, I give up. I'm listing on items directly on Google Base and cutting out the middle man.
