I remember when my brother used it quite frequently.

I have got the odd game or two though for my PS3 from it.

I used to use it all the time almost daily. buying selling but i haven't used it in a year.
i've switched to amazon for buying its so much better and cheaper and easier and faster delivery and new items
but when i go to sell anything i,ll use ebay just cant be bothered at mo

also i hate all that paypal crap. i hate payal rip of merchants. your not covered at all selling. and buying is such a hassle. amazon i click buy done. straight of the card. no paypal junk

Never sold on Amazon. Just Googled...

Individuals selling at Marketplace pay a GBP 0.86 per item completion fee

Then you pay a percentage on top of that depending on what type of item. Soon adds up.

its on a par with what you would pay to use cards if you had a bricks and mortar shop and you have to pay for any service - like your local paper, a car boot sale etc

Item: Road Games [DVD] [1982] [Region 1] [US Import] [NTSC]
Condition: Used - Like New
Condition note: in cellophane
Listing I 0723NEBWA5E
SKU: CF-NZ73-4BHM
Quantity: 1
Order date: 19/04/2014
Price: £15.98
Shipping: £1.26
Amazon fees: -£3.78
Your earnings: £13.46

This is a typical amazon sale...and with amazon, they set the postage so even if this DVD was a 3 disc steel book costing a lot more than 1.26 to send, that's all you would get.
