It's going to be harder and harder to search quickly.
But it will lessen the # of items you click on just to see it's not what you thought.

Oooo! I forgot to mention (this seems like the perfect thread, and I'm not sure if anyone else brought this up)
Apparently if you put BIN's on your auctions, there is something when you fill out the forms to sell your item that you can require people who use BIN's to pay within a few hours of the auction ending.
Also, in January 2004 if you use a email address for your nickname on eBay, they will forceably change it for you if you havent already. I don't know if my new name is affected: www-vidgame-net, but if it is, I'll be pissed! I just changed it like 2 months ago.

A subtitle is .50 per listing?!? And the original listing is only .35! Uh, no thanks. I don't think it'll increase sales *that* much.

"Buy it now: pay now" has been in use for a while now in certain categories. My mom just recently started using it for sports memorabilia....no more zero feedback buyers who bid on 3,000 items! However, I'm still not too keen on the whole idea. There are those times when I find things on a Monday and don't get paid until Friday.....it will suck to miss those. :angry:

This is probably what the new sell option is trying to eliminate. What's convienant for the buyer isnt always convienant for the seller.
