Reading AuctionBytes: Auction Site Bidville Launches Commission Fees; Reports Doubling of Membership
Bidville initiated a Final Success Fee for auction sellers effective February 1, 2004, transitioning from a membership-based monthly fee structure. The auction site does not charge listing fees. "During the period from the announcement, December 12, 2003 to implementation of FSF, our monthly membership registrations have more than doubled and overall site activity has increased by over 36%," said Michael Palandro, CEO of Bidville. "As a result, our merchandise sales activity increased approximately 12% for the same period."
