By Ina Steiner
Mark Wilkinson of eBid wrote me the following, of interest to auction users in the U.K.
"You might be interested to know that with the closing down of yahoo auctions, UK http://www.ebid.co.uk are allowing ex-yahoo members the opportunity to transfer their feedback ratings to eBid. Any ex-yahoo members wishing to transfer their auction ratings need to send their yahoo ID and eBid username to updates@ebid.co.uk prior to 27th june 2002.
"eBid have also announced that it has become a free auction site as of the 10th June 2002.
"eBid is now the 3rd largest auction site in the UK and the largest in terms of being a Free auction site."
