hi y'all,
i been reading a lot of threads here about y'all complaining the site is boring, about too many auctions left here too long, and lots of other problems. let me clue you guys in on somethin' as one of the original members of delcampe, member #301.... sebastien has been extremely generous from the start by trying to keep costs to a minimum to all the members. if you left your auctions on ebay for the length of time i have, what do you think that would have cost me or YOU? i know, a damn fortune, that's what. sebastien hasn't charged me a dime for renting his space. only a 4% fee since he started charging anything. and as for the clubs, that all voluntary. if you want the perks, you pay for them, just like when you fly first class. when the server problem came along in the u.s., he didn't come to anyone and ask for money. he thought of a solution and took it upon himself to finance in his own way. and again, no expenses out of my pocket. no fee increases or other fees. do you find that on ebay, HELL NO YOU DON'T. so when i hear someone say the site is 'boring', well, i say. 'it's an auction, not a video game.' lighten up on sebastien and enjoy what's here. and what we have. it is a great site with great support at a great price. 'nuff said.

merci et a bientot,

Hello Bill.

Thats a good posting.
I agree with all thast you say.
Delcape is an excellent site, and the costs of using it are reasonable.
What a pity that there are not more buyers here, and of those there are, such a large proportion are DEADBEATS ( non - pasyers)

Best Wishes.
James

Hi Cajun!

I've been reading your engaged posts of the last year and was more or less expecting you to jump to the barricades...

Dont' want to get into a game of words with you all, but let me point out one thing: I never said anything about increasing fees at Delcampe! I think it is excellent that Seb is able to run this site as cheaply as he does.

My problem with Delcampe - maybe my ONLY problem with Delcampe - is the possibility to endlessly repeat worthless auctions. I have never understood the logic behind this particular option. There is no problem to allow a seller to reload his auctions without additional fees, but at least make him push a couple of buttons in the process. Maybe he then remembers that a few of his items got out of stock a couple of years ago.....

And James: Ever asked yourself why there are so few serious buyers at Delcampe? Maybe we prefer to pay a little more fees for more quality..?


Best regards,
Bjorn B
