Anyone happen to know of another online auction site much better than eBay? Perhaps a 'free' one that doesn't really have many fees?

I was thinking of suggesting Yahoo! Auctions to him, or a couple of others "BidMonkey" and "ePier", but wasn't too sure -- since I don't exactly "sell" like he does.

Not sure on the fees. The last one doesn't have any (I don't think they do anyway)

Hmm...I remember referencing AuctionFire to him also -- and I'm sure the only downside for most of these would be possible lack of exposure unlike eBay?

I'll check these out, and see what their fees for listing/selling are...hopefully, I'll find one that doesn't have either, but thanks for the heads up!

yeah lack of exposure is the downside. but you wouldnt have to deal with ebay and paypal's crap either. Amazon auctions would have good exposure, but they have listing fees and selling fees.
