Discussion Football guernsey selling / auction website.

[Alberton_Magpie]

Myself and my website designing friend are floating the idea of creating a website similar to ebay that is exclusive for selling football guernseys and making it more user friendly e.g. Being able to search by decade, team, retail/player issue, training/match day etc. we would make it so their would be a a small cut that goes to us (e.g. 2%). Our main concern is would their be a market for such website to make it viable or is eBay a much easier and safe option?

I assume eBay with its large influence and ownership of the secure and reputable PayPal would trump. Might be a good idea with serious advisors though.

Probably need to have more than just AFL jumpers I'd say.

I've never had an issue with sellers on Ebay. My only issue is that shipping is so freaking expensive to the US . . .

Yeah they should also sell stuff like electronics, cars and fashion. They can call it eBay!
