The EveryAuction script was the most painless way for me get an "ebay"
feel for the site. EA has its quirks, but works pretty well overall.

Oh, the EveryAuction script is pretty cool.  I played with it on my
Linux box for a while and thought of using it but I don't want to use
my box at work to do any selling on since I don't own it.  I may still
consider running it on my guarded-inn domain at pair if I decide to
get the more expensive account that lets you run custom perl stuff.

How do you like the place that is hosting your auctions?  I saw they
have a $20 setup fee and then $5 per month which seems rather
generous.

I'm also wondering how you access the site to update auction
information.  Do you telnet in and edit the files manually or have
they crafted some web page you enter items in one at a time?  For an
auction as large as yours and as large as some of mine can be entering
items one at a time could get old pretty quick.

Like I said in my other message, I'd probably jump right in and give
them a try for a month or so because of how cheap it is but I was a
little scared because I didn't know anything about them and because
their site looked well, rather unprofessional.  If you're having good
experiences with them, though, I can keep an open mind.

I wonder if this would have worked in lugnet.market.auction ?  Moved
it here since I primarily wanted to discuss another site.
