I visited Ebay German today (6 Sept, Fiji's time) looking for 8mm. But what a record they have for one day. I sorted the list according to "Time: Newly Listed".

I visited one by one for the items just been listed. I opened page 1...2...3....thought I have finished....4...5....6...7. Ehmmmmm...usually at page 4, I have reached the yesterday items....but today....it was still going on to page ...8....9...10...11... it is stop? NO!...12...13...14!!!

Ebay German for 8mm

Geeeez....14 pages for newly listed items!. If every page there are 50 items then there are 700 8mm items just been listed in one day!.

The Ebay German has beaten EBay UK or even Ebay.com in listing 8mm items.

Cheers,

Winbert,

yesterday german ebay "celebrate" "10 years eBay" so the starting fees was 10 Cent each item independent from the starting amount.

You see that the most prints are offered for high prices.

If the 10-Cent offer would be every day, it would stop the price purge of used 8mm prints. [Wink]

Do you know: www.hood.de or www.filmundo.de ?

Winbert,

hate to burst your bubble... but the link you gave above takes me to eBay's listings under "neu eingestellt" which is EVERYTHING listed in order from newest to oldest... this is not the same as "heute neu" which would have been the new listings of the day that you were talking about.
Case in point: your link shows me 1,276 articles (as of the time of this post), but when I select "heute neu," only 36 articles show up.

Jan,
Of course if you click it now is already September 7th and that'a true there were only 8 items there. What I meant was yesterday (September 6th).

Now if you carefully check to the item listed on Sept 6th, believe me you will get tired in clicking!. [Roll Eyes]
