Thank you for all the replies so far. So I see that the Facebook groups are either public or private. Looks like the private groups have fewer participants then the public groups, so perhaps I'll join and try to sell a few things in a private group first. Maybe less noise in the private groups, than public? As for the eBay search, I was mostly referring to more recent mods eBay seems to have made that render a lot of sponsored listings and such that fill a page search with a lot of irrelevant search results. And, the fact that I have to save a crazy amount of searches using a crazy amount of special characters, just to accurately search for a handful of collectibles. I guess the sheer amount of items listed on eBay plays a role. But search in eBay renders a lot of noise. It's eBay's platform, so they can do whatever they want to enhance their bottom line, but sometimes it feels like it is impacting me as a buyer AND seller. And yes, I too have routinely sold internationally with eBay, so I understand their market is huge. I posted here earlier this year that I thought the time was ripe for someone to compete with eBay. I believe e-commerce tech/security is much more robust now, so hopefully some startup will have some success entering the market. Or perhaps many more will flourish eyeing specific markets. I may be naïve but I do believe if enough people get frustrated with the eBay's and Amazon's of this world that someone else eventually will enter the market with some success. Not saying it will be easy, and it will surely take some time. But to my eye's eBay is going in the wrong direction, particularly for sellers. Monopolies suck. But only my opinion.
