Okay here is the deal.
I got sick of dealing with ebay and thought I would give it a try.
So far it's okay. The thing I have noticed is that the user base is small enough that you can sometimes find deals on there.
I've managed to snag a few deals on gaming items for good prices.
There are things I like about it and things I don't.
First, they give you a coupon for 5 bucks for buying something, $20 or more just for listing something. So I listed some crap I didn't really expect to sell, just to get the coupon.
When you buy or sell something, they hold the funds until the person who gets the product confirms getting it and then leaves their review, or 3 days after the tracking shows it arrived. Whatever one is first there.
That is interesting as it kind of forces any issues with the item to be taken care of right away.
I've not had any issues with the things I've bought.
Next, you get a coupon for installing the app and making a purchase. It was like 20 off of something, but I don't remember the minimum amount to spend. I ended up using that to buy a Nintendo Switch.
I don't like how it shows you sold items when you do searches, but I understand the thinking they are going for there.
Lastly, and here is me doing some pimping out.
I get a link for that anyone uses it to sign sign up and they get discount coupons.
It works like this. They get $10 off thier first order and $20 when they make their first $100 in sales.
I get a little coupon for some cash the fist time they buy or sell something.
I'm not saying you should sign up, but here is my link if you want to.

Over all it is lacking in a lot of ways, but maybe it will grow and be able to take on ebay. I'm giving a shot as I've lost about 1k in ebay scams just this year alone and am sick of spending money with them.
