1) RSS Feeds of eBay Categories
By Ina Steiner
Reminder: AuctionBytes does not endorse the products and services featured in the "This & That" column, which often features new Web sites. (Anyone can set up a Web site.) Fraud has become widespread in the online auction world, and you should think twice before giving private information or User IDs and passwords to any third party.

2) Delcampe Auction Site for Collectors
By Ina Steiner
Delcampe looks like an interesting auction site for collectors. A reader named Jay wrote to tell me about Delcampe, a European-based collectibles auction site. "This deserves some mention and should be of interest to all types of collectibles buyers and sellers. I am "simply" a buyer on the site, but I plan to start selling soon."
