In my opinion, 90 percent of the auction sites popping up will be out of business within a year or two. I also consider the buyers and sellers at these sites to be good candidates for switching to eBay. However, in the short-term, they provide an outlet for dissatisfied sellers to try selling the wares they are not able to sell successfully on eBay. I still think eBay is the long-term winner in this market. The BIG question is, and always has been: How BIG can this market get? And how quickly will it grow going forward? Short-term, eBay has a two problems to solve: 1. Bringing in more buyers to raise the demand to meet the glut of supply from the sellers. 2. Getting more business out of the new registrants is does bring in.
