I've been listening to the multitude of complaints about ebay for quite some time now. And, I must say that I am not happy with the various efforts of ebay to extract more money for their sales However I must also say that there is no site that has the volume of phono and record items that ebay does. This situation has arisen simply because ebay was the first auction site of this type and gained it's following first. I have learned much from the volume of phono items on ebay and it is certainly good to keep such items in one place for ease of exploration. You can spread out your offerings among other sites if you wish, but I won't have time to do the search. I hardly have time to explore all of the ebay offerings! Craig's List is fine but it's definitely local in attractiveness. If one lives in Colorado, as I do, a wider audience for phono items is certainly desireable. I have found great items in Europe which I never would have seen on Craig's List. I am not in love with ebay--but until another site can offer such a volume of phono experience, I'm going to be exploring ebay first. Develop a better and more comprehensive site and I will use it.
