Its time Onsale launched P-P auctions on its own, GOOD RIDDANCE to Yahoo! Yahoo does not seem interested in promoting it, Onsale thought that the alliance with Yahoo and a free service would kill eBay, and bring advt. $$$, nothing seems to be going right for them, maybe they should whip up their own website, they dont need any more technology than they already have, there is no inventory here, no risk, they get a million page views a day so the popularity is now there, so how about a $5 or 5% service charge like eBay Anyone who tells me the market wont react positively to it is wrong. eBay is currently valued on this Biz model at almost 20 Billion ! Onsale only 600 million ??? And its not like eBay has a head start here, their revenue are still pathetic 4-5 million only !!!!!!!!!!!!!! Onsale can play catch in less than 3 months... wake up mr. kaplan.
