Q: What are the fees? Q: How much does it cost to register? Q: How do I schedule ending times? Q: Who does your proofreading? Q: What are the fees? A: There are no fees of any kind. You do get a $5 credit, and you will get statements on the auctions you list, but only becuase of the accounting functions that are built into the software. You will never be charged a fee for anything, period.
Q: How much does it cost to register? A: Registration is free, whether you are a buyer or a seller.
Q: How do I schedule ending times? A: Ending times can be scheduled by using decimal point in the Days Until Close input on the listing form. Basically, it works on a decimal/day system, 1 = 1 day, so .1 = 2.4 hours. Below is a table for you to use. The figures have been rounded down to 2 integers after the decimal point. This is because the Days Until Close field on the listing form is limited to four characters. Not because we don't like math - we do - but just to 
.04 = 1 hour So, if you want your item to end in seven days and roughly 5 hours, enter 7.2. Your item will end in 7 days, 4.8 hours. You can get pretty close to the exact time you want your auction to end, if, as they say, you do the math.
Q: Who does your proofreading? A: Nobody. Sometimes, I will use a spell checker. Not often. For that reason, I don't charge extra for typos.
Q: What about Buy It Now? You can add PayPal code for an instant payment button to any of your listings if you know how. It's pretty easy. Log into your PayPal account for more info.
Q: Can I post Adult Items? NO. We want to keep this pretty family oriented, so no adult videos or magazines, please. I will allow Playboy magazines, with cover photos only, but that's it.
