-> I don't know how many here check out the auctions at Golds, but here
is an

-> On a related topic, some people have expressed a distaste for putting
items
-> up for sale on Ebay. Gold's could be an excellent venue for this
group for a
-> number of reasons.
->
-> 1) The interface is very similar to Ebay and thus is probably easy to
use
-> for most people.
->
-> 2) It does not get anywhere near the traffic on Ebay and thus would
be a
-> better place for listmembers to get a reasonable price in an auction
format
-> that could mostly be listmembers.
->
-> 3) From my standpoint, Golds is not so big they feel the need to
provide the
-> myriad of regulations and controls present on Ebay.
I've gotten many good deals on Gold's for manuals and books, thanks to
elecdata1 who is now a list member. I've had very good experience on
this site. They will also "convert" your eBay feedback. It may take a
little while, but there is a page on Gold's to request this action.
