someone make a fuckin bitcion auction site ffs

There is one: cryptothrift. I'm sure there'll be many more that spring up as well. FTC also has an eBay-like marketplace on their site.

It hardly costs anything to list anyway. I think some categories might be free if they're auctions, but they always make their mark-up on the final value fees. It's pretty much pointless selling cheaper items on there once you factor in postage costs as well.

They have gotten rid of their listing fees, but now charge a higher final value fee, even on shipping costs now.  Also, you have to pay the PayPal fee on the total sale, not the sale amount after eBay fees.  Its ridiculous how they rob people.

What actually happened to bitmit? Why did it shut down? It wasn't a bad site but neither is cryptothrift.

You're right, they haven't gotten rid of listing fees, they just give you a certain amount of free ones.  Ebays 10% + paypals fees can add up quick though, and after you pay for shipping it makes it harder make decent money.

Coingig was a great bitcoin alternative to eBay also.  They shut down a few months ago too.

*cough* cBay *cough*

CryptoBay! Someone do it just to fuck with them.

They probably don't have that much business and therefore money to go around splashing it on advertising at the moment, but I'm sure they'll see a natural growth over time. If you want to see places like these succeed then do your bit and keep telling people about them.

It's not the prettiest of sites, but it works fine and is simple and easy to use. I'm sure the design will improve over time. I think they might have mentioned they were working on a new look or site aswel.
