What's Craigs List, eBay or PayPal?

DIFFERENCE BETWEEN ONLINE AUCTION SITES & CRAIGS LIST?
• Craig’s list is more like a listing service where the seller or hopeful buyer can list the specifics of what they want to buy or sell including price and other information
• On line auction sites, such as eBay – list items for a set period of time (typically 7 days) and then bidders can bid on the item sometimes far above value – EBay now also offers pricing as “Buy Now” to avoid bidding

Buying & selling items on online auctions should be fun, easy and safe and online auction sites should be easy to navigate, provide a wide selection of categories and subcategories, several custom selling options and a straightforward feedback forum. These issues are important to most of us when we consider on line auction sites…
