Default Why Yahoo was always be minor league

Posted By: Hankron

A few years back there was some eBay wanna be, fiancanced by one a very large media company. Full page advertisments were placed all over the place, including Tuff Stuff and Beckett. I figured I'd give it a try and place an item or two in their auctions. I tried to register, and it said it would email me with my password or whatever, and I never received the information to participate in the auction. About a week later I tried again, and was still given no info. A month later, the same. If their intent was to lure me away from eBay to their site, they weren't doing a good job.

A few monthes later, the auction site was pulled by the big media company due to financial losses and lack of participation.
