Don't care to speculate about the numbers like that, mainly because I'm not

I saw that I personally, as a seller, would gladly do something like this.
Were I only a buyer, I would not. Well, I would, just to help Dan, but any
extra cost like this ought, imo, to be borne by the sellers, not the buyers.
That's not just a "how I feel" statement - I think that makes the most sense
market-wise. I wouldn't pay eBay a fee to let me bid on auctions - they
make their money from the sellers, just as Brickbay does.

Hi Brickbay Fans :-) I have played with the numbers as well, as far I know has Dan so far had a revenue since the opening medio June 2000 of approximately USD 450-500,000 - that gives him only a profit of USD 9-10.000 since the beginning.
