If my metrics look too good to sound real, want to buy a website? You know for a fact its owner undervalues it. ;-)

  i didn't say too good to be real, i said they look fake. 1-it says you have 20K users, but the powersellers are all in the 18-20K range...and a random look at a dozen profiles before that yielded nothing. 2-items for sale, the front page item has 3 featured items, they don't change, has to be pretty dead if you aren't even changing the featured items. 3-those featured items, lead to items, the top # is 103008, my guess is that the first 2 #s are just being added automatically, so the total is something like ~3,000 listings(and I bet it's lower than that, since I doubt you started at 100000). So at 99K bids, that's ~33 bids per item...and with $1.7 million in sales, that's an average price of $566...and that's assuming every item got sold. 4-i sorted by bids, and there are a total of 41 bids, across the entire site. And that's with a 14 day listing time. If you have 14 bids in two weeks, I find the 99K total bids # suspicious. So yeah, it sure seems like you are doing the exact same thing you are complaining about
