Wagglepop 2: Deja Vu as Auction Site That Left Sellers Stranded Reopens

[racedream]

Alskling, that was a great post.
 
No need to apologize. You speak the truth and there is nothing wrong with that. I enjoy reading your posts.

chiquita, I agree, she needs a kickass woman avatar

Feeling redundant, but I agree Alskling - no need to apologize and keep those posts coming!

Your posts are always so well thought out and insightful. I always look forward to reading what you have to say! 

[let the truth be told]

Alskling,

ALL THE WORK EBAY AND ITS ORIGINAL SELLERS DID TO EDUCATE THE PUBLIC HAS BEEN DONE. Karen's stupid sermon is like telling Poppers to reinvent the wheel. What does WP offer that's so unique? NOTHING -- unless you want to call being a member of a  cult that charges its faithful converts to get warm fuzzies, cyber breakfasts and a place to talk about their kid's potty training habits a truly meaningful shopping experience.

:turkey1:     

need I say anymore!!!

Confession time, Eclectica -- I'm an Aquarian, too. We're the last on Earth who'll ever be led around by the nose.

Back on topic...

One thing that Ray has working for him is that his general online sellers, his flock, don't have a clue what it actually costs to set up, launch and run an auction site.  Comparisons are perpetually made to the present day eBay, so they assume it's an expensive venture. eBay evolved through many years of expansion to create the guzzling giant it is today, with a B&M building, multiple departments and staff occupying them all. This misguided vision, this comparison is what Poppers believe is a reality with WP2. Therefore they honestly believe each tweek to the program involves time, staff and money.

But Ray is using Rscript. A packaged product available to anyone who thinks they can run an auction site and can do so solo from their home. From the Rscript website:

Pricing:

**Free Installation with a site license purchase**

We offer two purchase options for RSAuction v2.x. If you are already running your own server, you can purchase a single site license, and install it and run it yourself. We also offer a fully hosted solution. You pay a monthly fee, and we'll set up your site, install all the software, and do all the maintenance. What a relief. Better still, there is no contract required. You can start up service for as little as $49, and cancel at any time.

Please note: Along with your instant download, you will now automatically recieve a copy of the RSAuction application on CD. Please provide you paypal confirmed address while creating you account.

Pick through the information the Rscript site provides and ask yourself...could I do this from home too?

Props to you, well said. This was to be the wagglefact for yesterday until ray tried hacking our computers. I lost the link to the software in the process could you post a link to the software so everyone can see how similar the program is (out of the box, very little changes)? I found it and it is not Rscript! it is something works!

WAGGLEFACT GAME

Ok I want to test something here and may continue it on our forum once it is up later this week!

Here is how this will go. Kind of like hangman but it will be based on wagglefacts that have been posted already. Everyone can play but you must post before you play and everyone will go in order. This game will start at 8:30 EST.

Example:

I will post something like this,

What does the truth tell everyday.


             ---   ----------  --  --- ---

The first person that wants to play will then post a letter like      E

I will then post it again like this

--e   -----e----  --  --e ---


then the next person will post a letter (first come first served) and I will reply and so on. If you know the answer post it but you must post it on your turn only and you can do it after you have called a letter.

The answer above is        the wagglefact of the day


let me know if you want to play by posting it in the thread.
