The Bottom Line
Worth checking out as a buyer, somewhat disappointing as a seller. However many of the problems are getting fixed as they make updates and revision to the server and website.

This site has a lot of potential but it is not well know and can be stressful to use. As they continue to update the site and build a following it is definitely getting better.
I use this site both as a buyer and a seller.
As a buyer I think it is wonderful to set you own prices for what you want. I like that sellers are more willing to negotiate than on some other sites. I like that you can set the request to last longer than just a week leaving more time for interested seller to respond.
As a seller I am less enthused about the site. I like the fact that I am directing my products to specific people I know are looking for specific items. I don't like the fact that some buyers simply ignore me instead of letting me know that they are not interested. I also dislike that some buyers do not or cannot clearly state what they want so I have to make 4 offers just to try to clarify exactly what the buyer wants.
Also the early bird leads for sellers does not seem to work. I have not gotten one email through that service yet if I go in and so the same search manually usually something new comes up.
