Leon- I say don't get discouraged quite yet! There is almost nothing you can propose that is going to get 100% approval. If I say it is sunny you can be sure there's at least someone who will say it is raining. I think the board is missing the point and I will repeat it- vintage collectors are getting fed up with ebay. Their latest change hasn't even been fully tested yet. What if sellers find that because of the hidden bidder policy their sales are suddenly down 10%-20%? Wouldn't these sellers by necessity be looking for an alternative market? And that's all Leon is offering- a chance to try a new venue that is board friendly. Would you say that ebay has become more user friendly? I think not. I know this will take time anyway because there is a lot of software involved, but I wouldn't throw in the towel because of a few naysayers. (added to say I respect naysayers as much as anyone)
