We interrupt for this commerical break...

I'm just curious if anyone has even heard of Bidville.com before. It's like ebay but nearly as $$$ for sellers. (it costs me about $2-$3 to list an item on ebay anymore. And then there are the stupid paypal fees ebay put in after they bought the company. UGH! I can list an item on Bidville for 10 cents.) I only ask because I finally shut down my site there and I'm only doing listings because I was barely getting hits. (No, not my website store. That's still up and running and doing very well.) I've seen ads for Bidville but it seems no one goes to any of the other auction sites other than ebay.

Okay, back to sewing.

I've got the same issues with ebay - I'm wondering when a big enough competitor will arise to make ebay's prices go down! It would be nice if something like bidville took off! I don't know what kind of traffic they get though!

they barely get any traffic. Which is great for buyer, terrible for sellers. I often buy jewlery off of Bidville because the same stuff would go for 3x as much on ebay and about 10x as much at any antique store. But I've only got 3 hits on an custom outfit that at least gets 150 hits on ebay. I'm retrying my luck with Overstock.com again too but I doubt much will happen at either site.
