I'm not surprised Google is making a try at auctions, but if Yahoo can't make a dent in ebay's momentum, who can?   I've bought and sold using Yahoo auctions and I love it, no fees, user friendly, my only concern is that it doesn't have as many users as ebay.  You would think with no listing fees a

It's an interesting idea, but let's not forget that both Yahoo and Amazon tried to compete with eBay's auction format head to head -- at a time when those companies were as big and full of money as eBay was. Neither was terribly successful. Now Google is the big boy on the information super h
