Etsy seems a better proposition but for whatever reason they limit the types of stuff that they sell. Facebook seems to be coming on the scene now though their offering is more like classifieds than auction.

  In my experience, Ebay is "just good enough" to do the buying I've been doing recently. It's not good but it does "work". Amazon is an altogether more structured and reassuring experience, but you don't have all the stuff you get on Ebay.
