Interesting, some feedback: It's not immediately clear why I would shop The Shelf instead of one of the many other ways of shopping. Please be super-explicit

Please be super-explicit about what the app will do if I log in via Facebook. I like being able to auth without creating a username/password, but I worry about feedspam.
You should show the current bid amount on the front page before the click-through.
The scam "pay to bid" sites make me weary of new auction sites, so you may have an uphill battle proving that you're not one of them. I trust that you're not.
- minouye 14y agoThanks! All great points. You're definitely right that the auction format inspires serious mistrust these days(i.e. "Just buy a bidpack!"). Our main goal is to provide a platform where sellers can get in front of new customers and buyers can get access to quality products, in a fun/engaging format.
- MartinCron 14y agoget access to quality products A marketplace of only actually awesome stuff that I can buy right now sounds good.
- hnriot 14y agoLike Amazon, you mean.
- MartinCron 14y agoAmazon sells good stuff, but a lot of crap too. Their mission is to be comprehensive, not curated.
- xanadohnt 14y agoYou mean FAB, then?
- MartinCron 14y agoMore like FAB than like Amazon, but a lot of the stuff on FAB feels a little cheesy. I'm thinking more like Uncrate without the supercars, yachts, and kickstarter junk.
