I use Ebay. I use it a lot, and its a great company- but it is my opinion that it is partly a fad. A lot of people on Ebay are just there because it is a novelty. Those people will burn out eventually I suspect. It is great for antique dealers and really dedicated collectors- but I am not sure they can fuel the almost unlimited expansion which would be necessary to justify its value at the moment. I know you want Mike's opinion- I am sure he will give it to you- but since I use EBAY every day I thought I would put in my 2 cents- hope you don't mind. I looked into the puts on EBAY and they were a rip so I decided not to pursue the matter- as for shorting, a lot of very smart people have lost a lot of money shorting net stocks- so be careful.
