<VV> E-bay sellers........Now Corvair

[cfm]

can we as a group start our own corvair and corvair specific auction site? I mean e-bay can't stomp on everyone, doesn't Yahoo have a fledging auction site? just checked, not anymore... they stopped there service.

we have other alternatives though

I have purchased lots of Corvair (and other car) parts on eBay and have sold 
a few as well so this sticks in my craw.  As always, the buyer must ultimately 
pick up this additional cost.

It would be nice if this were truly an opportunity for a company or two to 
emerge in competition to eBay but there really is no possibility for this to 
happen.  eBay knows this which is why they feel free to walk all over their 
sellers and buyers.  I believe that the only recourse is for the government to 
investigate these abuses by what is effectively a monopoly.  Of course, I hate 
that government gets involved in more and more of our lives but one of their
few 
positive activities is when they intervene on behalf of the small guy.

Just an opinion.
