A thought for you all. If we could all get together, say on a certain night, and add up the total cost of all the items on EBAY, and then do it a week or two later, we could get a decent image of what EBAY is making as far as money goes. I used to do it with ONSL, but it took around 6 hours. I was just getting their gross sales. With EBAY, we can get that they are probably going to have around 3 million in sales this quarter or so, based on the number of listings, at 25 cents per listing. If we could take the total dollar value, times .05, we should get the amount of sales for that end of it shouldn't we?
