But the problem with Yahoo is that hardly anyone sells
there (in comparison)
and that stooooopid auto-continue feature they run has made me and many
others pull totally out of Yahoo auctions. Everytime I check for just about
anything on ebay I find a deal, on Yahoo I've found one or two things and
then when I had sniped the auction it continued for 10 more minutes- that's
BS.
I won't use Yahoo for the simple fact that they now seem to want an insane
amount of personal information in order to bid. Stuff that Yahoo doesn't
need laying around on their servers. Of course for all I know, eBay might
want the same amount of info for new users.
