Hi all, check out bidville.com. It's free. I'm giving it a trial run with 3 auctions. Also, as a buyer, lots of good deals.

I dunno, I looked in the computer section and it's pretty much just business's selling items at fixed prices higher than you can find retail without too much trouble. Didn't see any bids either.

OK, here's the scoop. Two attempts to sell a graded FB card on eBay. No luck. Listed it on Bidville with the 'Take it Now' option. It was taken within a few hours. Let's see, that makes eBay 0-2 and Bidville 1-0. We'll see on the other listings.

I looked, and although it may be free to list, all I saw in the RARE books category was not-rare stuff and a few overpriced uncommon ones. Nothing was good enough to be worth the opening bid or take it now price.

In case some of you don't know, BidVille is what AuxPal changed their name to after their plans for a PayPal-only auction fell through.
I'd say they're doing fairly well as far as numbers of items listed, and a few do have bids. I browsed the site briefly this morning.
