EcommerceBytes-Update, Number 234 - March 01, 2009 - ISSN 1528-6703

This & That: Online Auction Roundup
1) Delcampe Runs Stamp Trivia Quiz
By Ina Steiner

Reminder: AuctionBytes-Update 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.) Online fraud has become widespread, and you should think twice before giving private information or User IDs and passwords to any third party.

********

Stamp Listing is organizing a Quiz in association with auction site Delcampe.net. The quiz runs through March 15, 2009, and consists of 3 multiple-choice questions related to philately. A newsletter will be sent to more than 50,000 English-speaking members to announce the competition. The prizes will consist of 3 one-year Club+ subscriptions (value: 15.00 USD/10.00 GBP, 30.00 USD/20.00 GBP and 60.00 USD/40.00 GBP). One of the three multiple-choice questions: "Which country issued the first self adhesive stamp?"
