Just an example, we sold 118 items tonight on whatnot because I'm sick of ebay and Amazon's BS. We have been selling over 100 items per week now for the last 5 weeks since joining whatnot all in a live auction setting.
Why are we selling there? Simple, they take a very firm stance of you bid on something you have bought it. They hit your credit card instantly after the auction ends and each auction is 1 minute long. It is an amazing format that allows us to sell 100-130 items in 4-5 hours.
After experiencing this way of treating sellers and holding buyers accountable I realize exactly how poorly ebay and Amazon treat their sellers. Always knew it was bad...just didn't realize how bad.
