If OAI sellers looked at the overall ecommerce picture and put the rinky dink sites in perspective we wouldn't have had anything to laugh talk about during the past 4 years.  Lol

Magento has been downloaded over 1 million times, there are over 216,000 osCommerce stores, and only 20,000 sellers wasting their time at PSU/Pheebay/etc. being spammed by small auction site owners.

I think the average online seller has looked at the overall ecommerce picture.  Thumbsup
BBH, I'm surprised you didn't mention that Mike should STFU and stay off the boards.

Even more perspective for other "eBay alternatives"
Plunderhere has taken 5 years and many different owners, scripts, and programmers to reach half that many customers buying lightly soiled children's clothing, 50 cent books, nazi memorabilia, and counterfeits from Asia. In that same time, Overstock Auctions has gathered 23 million customers. But don't mention that at PSU's OAuctions forum, where you cannot find a positive statement about the site since 2006.

On the other hand, Atomic Mall has nothing but happy fluffy fuzzy comments from it's sellers to the 20,000 customer base.

I'll be over at the site with 23 million customers where sellers leave for PSU to whine if you need me.  Happy001

Mo and Ray doing the exact same thing on OLA threads they accuse AM Mike of doing:
http://www.powersellersunite.com/viewtop...490#266490
  Entering into another site's threads with big flashy banners, asking questions and offering criticisms of OLA.
They did it with Bonanzle:

and with AM, as well laid out by Mike:
http://www.powersellersunite.com/viewtop...616#269577

Like these sites or hate them, Mo and Ray are total hypocrites for claiming they are "spamming" all while bashing all "trolls" who prove they spam more outrageously and shamelessly than all other rinky dinks combined. Grow up, really. Yet rinky dink owners still flock to him for mods and to her for advice. They are getting secondhand scripts from him, advice from an admin who never sold anything more than $5, and can't figure out why their businesses never take off. No one said they were all smart enough to run auction sites that don't look like 99% of all the other auction sites.

TT allows banners in signatures but the size limit is 1x1 pixel Lol

So, I was going to make some smartaz comment on how her work has paid off, because now she has a couple more than 2 sales a month, but I only see 2 for July as well. I'd laugh, but that's just sad.

All of that time wasted on AM when she could be out networking and making money for her own store. Mike should take pity and buy something from her.

So, Mike hasn't even paid to get those ads off of his forum. Talk about sad. $7 a month, and he can't afford that....LOL :turkey1:

I should let Alison know about that. I'm sure she'd be happy to donate the $7 to get the ads off....LOL

There is an extremely high probability, in fact likelihood, that anyone who may have been "banned" from Atomic Mall fully caused their own problems resulting in such a ban.

Additionally, a ban from Atomic Mall would have been preceded by a warning. If warnings were ignored, then the user(s) deserved to be banned.

Are you sure he'd know if it's legal?  His track record suggests he is either clueless about what's legal, or he is cut from the iOffer/Plunderhere/LoudFrog/AuctionFire mold of condoning illegal items on his site.

When Mike is alerted to  illegal pirated DVDs on his site he changes the listing number of the infringing items a TT member has pointed out but allows the illegal item and the copyright thief seller to remain on his site.

When Mike is alerted that a hacked auction site containing numerous illegal child porn and illegal warez pages/links is being sold on his site he changes the listing number of the illegal item a TT member has pointed out but allows both the item and seller to remain on his site.

The only thing that Mike seems to find objectionable (i.e. "illegal" in his AM fiefdom) and worthy of a seller being banned is a seller who dares to disagree with Mike.  Asking a simple business question that questions an Atomic Mall policy might get you banned from Atomic Mall but selling an illegal item won't.

AM cheerleader Wrote:I dont usually give this advice, but, take a look at Atomic Mall....what you are thinking of selling seems to do pretty good there for a couple of other sellers of like items...no fees upfront to list up to 2000 items....low FVF only if an item sells......it might be the best of both worlds for you...and the site gets good Google exposure
