Here’s a new service which serves as an auction site…How are they even thinking of competing with ebay ? Jittery , upfront looks like (ebay-listing fees) + open communication between buyers and sellers + intelligent software facilitating market research(similar to amazon book recomm) + use of blogs to list items and quotes . It’s in beta..Watch out for this firm, for it will give a pulse on whether the market is ready to accept services which link blogs and auction.
