Congratulations! We are growing every day at Questforbids.com, and it is thanks to all of you!
Most of us all met on earlier auction/marketplace sites over many years. We have been up and down with openings and closings. Wagglepop was the first letdown for me, and it kept rolling downhill basically everywhere I went. That's why I started this site. I knew what happened all through the last 10 years on a multitude of sites that closed down with little (or even zero) warning, and wanted to do something to turn that curve.
I bring this up because a site most of us were on, that brought us all here, announced a closure again last night, then changed to a sale to one of the members by morning. Whoever the new owner is, I wish them success in their venture and will help however I can.
With that said, I wanted to set everyone's mind at ease that this site will not close. I have put a ton of time adding features into it, and watched the growth, and frankly I don't think I could shut it down even if I couldn't afford to keep it running. It's a pleasure and an honor to keep the site up for so many of you to list, buy, and sell on, and I look forward to a long future. I will keep it running as long as there is a seller and a buyer who want to be here.
Here is the full list of features that have been added to the site:
Listing meta tags
Facebook comment integration
Mobile site (visit on your phone to view)
eBay feedback import
Your own RSS feed for your store (load it to Twitter and Facebook on twitterfeed.com!)
Member area stats
Full stats on mainpage
Constant Twitter/Facebook feeds
Currently testing:
GoShopping feed
Better stores directory layout
Online/Offline status on all your listings
Next on the testing agenda:
Quicker buyer registrations
New, clean, eBay-like theme (View below)
