I like looking at blogs as a friend is going to start one up... and I pass on any ideas I find .... At this point I have no idea what an esnipe is, but after reading about this call, I want to get up to speed on this... I shop Ebay all the time... and tend to search for items with NO other bids... that way, I know the seller hasn't had his friends bid up the price on me, then drop out after I commit to more $$$... if I am the only bidder, there has been no funny biz.... Way cool you answer the phone, CEO -- and it means more as I am totally sober, and work in IT. Robin Rowan

Your ideas on entrepreneurship are great. I have a suggestion for esnipe : you know how you have "bid groups"? - I would suggest kind of an "anti" bid group. Sometimes I want to bid on items from a seller only if I win one particular item, so I can benefit from combined shipping. So the anti bid group would work this way: set up a number of bids on different items. However, if I lose the auction on item #1, the ensuing bids would be cancelled. If I win item #1, the following bids go through as planned. Hey,
