Jing- eBay has experience unbelievable grow! I have done business with this company for over two years. I let their IPO slip by me. I can't believe I did that! I KNEW what a fantastic site it was. I really kick myself on that one. I do not own any of the stock.

My wife and I collect Borden's Elsie the Cow items. Two years ago, you might be lucky to see 5 to 10 items listed. Now, there are hundreds!!! The numbers just keep growing!

The only problem I see with eBay (and I am a registered buyer and seller with them) is that they must continue to make upgrades. People do not appreciate waiting for sites to load because of the heavy traffic. Their customer service could be better too. I have left e-mails when I was listing an item, and they got back to me after my auction was over. That needs to be improved.

Here is one stock tip for you. Genealogy has become very popular, and people are joining this hobby by leaps and bounds. Ancestry.com is a leader in this area. They offer many data bases to their subscribers. They even offer some free service to nonsubscribers. Awhile back, I heard that they may be offered to the public soon. The analyst said that it will be a winner. I believe it! I can't remember who owns this company now, but it is someone who has made some excellent investment decisions, and Ancestry.com was another one of them.

I miss your comments on the ATHM web.
