I finally got all my stuff on Yahoo (about 550 items), and I've been pleasantly suprised to find that all my effort has been worth it (and, even though my auction software supports Yahoo, I found a lot of tweaks were needed - about 10 hours worth).

I almost completely stopped running Ebay auctions about 4 weeks ago - just a few "seeds" for my ebay store and website. Ebay Store still generates sales - about 5/week.

But I've had 16 sales at Yahoo in the last 7 days - 13 have paid (so far).

Not at all bad for a "free" site (actually, it's rather astounding). Compared to Blujay (0 sales in 3 months), Bidville (1 sale over 2 months), Overstock (1 sale over 2 months) and Ioffer (22 sales over 6 months - 10 NPB's) - Yahoo is looking pretty darn nice right now.

I never thought I'd say this...but if Yahoo gets some momentum, they might very well get a foothold here. Right now, I don't see any point in even trying any of the hundreds of other "freebie" sites out there - and the ones that are charging don't have anywhere near Yahoo's traffic (so what's the point).

I was just wondering if anyone else is seeing some Yahoo success...
