Any concern that yahoo and onsale are going to replicate the ebay model on yahoo for free. What impact will this have on ebay's profits if they lose the listing fee??

Ebay extends the auctions when they have a outage. The other night they were down for a couple hours and they extended everything that was to close during that time another 24 hours. I hate that because it has done me in a couple times as high bidder but I also have got some good buys in the early days when everything crashed and there was no extension.
