0 is probably the $49.95 monthly "showcase stores"

other RScript site numbers:
theauctionman 116/28/32/24,014

other smaller auction sites with stores:
eBid US 700 stores 168,000 items
eBid UK 2200 stores 185,000 items
ePier several hundred stores 134,000 auction items 280,000 store items
Bidville 450 stores 950,000 items

not auctions, but...
iOffer over 1000 stores, 600,000 listings
LiveDeal over 1000 stores, 2 million listings

Alexa traffic rankings (smaller numbers are better.  Yahoo is ranked #1, eBay #9, Amazon #14)
iOffer 2,193
LiveDeal 5,767
eBid 17,178
Bidville 24,001
TulipTools 61,827 <--included for comparison purposes
ePier 64,307
Wagglepop 305,131

WP has the least number of listings, the least traffic, and yet the highest listing fees (eBid, Bidville, ,ePier, iOffer, LiveDeal are free for both store and auction listings) and higher monthly store subscription prices than either eBid (free.  LiveDeal and iOffer stores are also free), or Bidville ($5).

The lack of selection means buyers won't come, the high fees mean sellers won't come (unless Ray limits his marketing to some of the clueless people on the eBay boards who have never stepped foot off eBay and don't know WP's prices are higher than 99% of the alternatives)
"Well, Jay was so giddy that someone named Jay was involved with this site we posted our first non-eBay listing in 3 years here at Lunarbid (we tried two items at Yahoo once upon a time, they bombed)" -Marie posting in a LunarBid thread at OTWA in 2005 wins the award for 'most moronic reason ever given for choosing a venue"

"thanks twat u must have nothing better 2 do. do u talk to all your members like that. will not be recomending your site.
best way to put it is TULIPTOOLS.COM IS REALLY SHIT. DONT JOIN." -pubescent owner of rinky dink off2auction.com in 2011

The one WP post that stayed on the SB for a verrrrrrry long time is gone now.  The first post didn't give the actual URL, so why did eBay pull the entire thread? 

My post didn't contain the URL either and it got pulled right away.

Could it be that eBay IS nervous?!  Big Grin

Folks on the stores board are getting all excited about WPs $10 a month plan. 

The only one I see that making money for is Ray.  (It has already bumped up the number of store subscriptions.)
