Observation

A lot of mine are too; it's a good feeling finding out that that a buyer has signed up 2 minutes before buying my items

It's even nicer when they return for more, and many do.

Well over half my buyers are newbies - they sign up to buy something - once they've had a good experience here, I hope they will return for more.

Yes and lets make it friendlier for them to return and be repeat buyers or shop amongst the other sellers/

I don't find any problem with buying on eBid, What do you think is needed?

Agree buying isn't a problem - so long as the stuff is there and you can find it.

What I would like is more tools that help buyers filter searches further, the advanced search filters are very limited in my opinion

For example, currently the Blackball list is an option for sellers: why not make this available so that buyers can Block Sellers as well.
