Answer
"WagglePop"
Sounds almost as strange as eBay of Google
I hope it does just as well as ebay and Google.
Answer
ok - the eternal question, how are they going to attract buyers?
Answer
Its been a while since I looked at his proposed fee structure but I believe he plans on fvf only no insertion fee (but I'm probably wrong!).
if there are no insertion fees, I'd list everything I have over there (duplicate listings).
I'd be willing to support any site that charges fvf only at least until they have attracted buyers. even if those fvf are as much as ebays fvf and insertion fees combined. I'll gladly pay for items that sell.
I haven't tried overstock, and probably won't, because I won't throw insertion fees down the toilet on a new place. do enough of that with ebay but at least some of it sticks.
Answer
I'll give it a shot if there are no listing fees and only FVF, I am with mel on this one. I won't be tossing good money after bad though on a site that hasn't generated any traffic to it though.
Answer
I'll also list over there if there is only a fvf and no listing fee. It would help to have buyers, too though
Answer
I like this part so far:
Wagglepop, which has a projected launch date of January 18, 2005, has been formed with the belief that sellers and buyers deserve an auction site that makes buying and selling easier, and better.
Our commitment is to make a site that buyers and sellers can meet and trade in an environment that promotes and rewards good e-commerce behavior.
Basically, a site that works.
Please take a look around this, our temporary home page, and learn about why we could be the right place for all your e-commerce in 2005!
and this under "Site Features"
*FREE basic listings! More variety and lower prices for buyers and more profit for sellers.
*Considerably lower listing upgrade fees and sale fees.
I'm ready for a looksee!
