Only five dealers right now so it has plenty of room to grow. I had fun looking around though. I see potential.

Do you have to be logged in to see completed sales to see how much is actually selling there or did they leave that feature off the site? Unless I'm missing something I don't see that option anywhere

The marketplace just launched -- they wouldn't have any completed sales unless something happened since the last time I looked, when this thread started. Did I miss something?

Just after a quick glance, I don't much care for the limited ways to filter out things (one thing about ebay I actually like). I'd rather not search just by metal type but actually want to see all coins, but I don't see any "see all" option. And if I search for something like "half dollar", it would be nice to have more to filter than just year and grade. Still will keep this in mind though.

Well, hopefully they will do a better job of "evolving" than ebay has. ebay has gone to pot ever since Meg Whitman left.

True, and it should really be the point of anyone doing something like this. That is, to do it better. Otherwise it will fail and people will just use what they have been using.

ebay dominates (almost a monopoly) because of 4 big fat fundamental reasons staring us all right in the face.

None of which (I don't think) have been touched upon in this thread. This is why all the start-ups and potential challengers ultimately fail. They actually failed prior to launch. We should actually give them all the support, and our business, as possible.

This does not mean ebay is the end all forever and ever. Quite the opposite.

The faster ebay grows/dominates numismatics and continues ever faster towards their goal of numismatic monopoly WE get that much closer to a new paradigm.

This doesn't mean a coin will never be bought and/or sold on ebay ever again just that ebay's market position in numismatics will be dramtically diminished.
