Ok i've seen the other post about Ebay and as you know i know have (i wish) the new Ebay CLICK HERE 4 UR NEW EBAY NOW! not been going long but its getting better but i need more members, more items and more BIDDERS You get FREE £40's of advertising but im willing to help the CS peeps out 
ANYWAY................
I thought of something well funny... EVERYONE who has Ebay has to post a silly item 4 sale and at the bottom advertise my site like. "Visit www.ukflava.com" "for more items like this visit www.ukflava.com" or "click here" <--- with a link 
Ive done it a few times and never got done imagine if loads of us did it they would be stuffed and would never find them all hahaha
Do It Nike style

Compete yes on a smaller scale, pretty obvious really 
If it was like Ebay i would be ermmmmm rich, in another country and errrrr laughing 
All have to start somewhere just like Ebay did !
It's good fun though and a nice challenge

eBay's become shit though.
The main reason I started looking on their for stuff was for second hand goods that are dirt cheap.
Now though, people sell brand new stuff for a few quid cheaper than a reputable shop.
Or they start an auction at £1 for something that sells for £2000 in the shops... then they set a £1500 reserve price.
It's getting harder to find decent bargains on eBay

the problem with ebay is that they charge silly percentages when you sell and item and it isnt straight forward either its like 2.5% on a certain item, but if it goes up in price its another percent on top (something like that).
i have some stuff to put up, but i know if i did it on ebay i would shift it, whereas if i wacked it on ukflava i doubt i would But i suppose i can wack em up and see what happens

What you said there mate is very very true.. I have had many many members coming over to my site because Ebay is messing them around and the prices on Ebay are going up and up and up !!
On my site if you sell an item ALL the money is yours, i don't get any % or anything like that what you see is what you get.. You can see all this in you UKFlava account and when you get low on advertising credit (you get £40's free) you just top back up like your pay as you go mobile 
Will take time to get busy and popular BUT with your help it will get there.. We have so many members on Corsasport its a great place to start !!
Many items have been sold already, my dads bought a few items as have i and others so come on guys
