Question Question: Auctions on DoD?

Hey Gang,

Is there any interest in DoD having an Auction area, similar to Ebay? Just fishing around for feedback, so let me know your thoughts please!

Mayor

Hmmmm......that would be a neat idea. What all would the cost be for this? Same as ebay?

I would be willing to put up items on here for auction if you decide to do it!

I don't think we would charge for it until it became much larger. Let me give it some thought. Keep the feedback coming, please.

Throwing in my 2 cents...

I think it would be a nice alternative to eBay for many items, but is it opening up a can of worms for you, Mayor? There's the obvious up-front cost of programming and establishing rules, then what about the inevitable disputes? If it's something that you think could grow, do you have hopes that it could balloon into a uBid, Amazon, CNET or Yahoo-sized operation, all who probably dream of someday challenging eBay? How about starting with a rudimentary classifieds section and slowly evolving it into an auction/classifieds area? Just some thoughts for consideration!

Sean Hannity is the hottest new phenomenon in TV and talk radio today. His gutsy, take-no-prisoners interviews and commentary on the Fox News Channel's Hannity & Colmes have made him one of cable television's most popular personalities. Now, in Let Freedom Ring, Sean Hannity offers a survey of the world -- political, social, and cultural -- as he sees it. Devoting special attention to 9/11, the war on terror, and the continuing threat we face at home and abroad, he makes clear that the greatest challenge we have to overcome may not be an attack from overseas, but the slow compromising of our national character.
