Below you will find a very comprehensive and ‘exhaustive” directory of tons of alternatives to ebay. Majority are general merchandise (new or used), except as noted, many are free, some are fixed-price while others are up for bid or negotiation. A combination of auction, live-auction, marketplace, classified, etc. Some are large incorporated companies, others could be smaller entrepreneurs just starting out while most are somewhere in the middle. Majority are based in the United States, but a select few listed here are based in Canada, United Kingdom, Germany, Australia & New Zealand – Many allow sales internationally. I would guess that at least 90% of these are still in operation since this list was compiled a few months back . Due to the nature of the internet with mergers and buy-outs, these listings are sure to fluctuate. This should give anyone with an interest of selling online an incredible opportunity to shop & compare – Do check ‘em out. No guarantees are made as to which one will out-perform others however one thing is certain. They are ALL here as an alternative to ebay who has the ‘universally” recognized name but has gotten TOO BIG for it’s own good and has also gotten waaaaaaaay out of hand with their fees and policies! Good Luck and Happy Searching!
