Dear Prospective Member,

As the founder and webmaster of Yabexe.com I want to tell you the reasons for this alternative to eBay website and why you will find it better and safer than eBay. After reading I hope you will be convinced to go to the registration page and use Yabexe.com. So, allow me to take the opportunity to thank you, to tell you a little about Yabexe.com, and why you should register.

First, let me say that I know your first inclination will be to compare Yabexe.com to eBay. You shouldn't. Yabexe is new and has plenty of room for growth. I used eBay as both a buyer and seller when it started back in the mid 90's. It was great time for all. Everyone made money, or got a great deal. As most of you sellers are probably aware, things have changed.

Between Insertion Fees, inflated Feature Fees (some no longer available to the small seller), and obscene Final Value Fees (as high as 15%!), it isn't worth the effort of listing an item on eBay. Now, they don't even allow payments through any other method except Paypal! Combine this with foreigners selling cheap knockoffs using drop-shipping locations, or just outright scammers who aren't dealt with, eBay has become a hazard. Most of us refer to it as "feeBay" because everything they offer has a huge fee of some kind. I had enough!

As a webmaster and programmer, I decided to recruit a couple of other programmers and offer an alternative auction website to those who wanted it. We created Yabexe.com for you. It was time to see if people were willing to leave feeBay, start making money again and buy things with less worry of being cheated (or scammed). Though we do have some small fees for optional special features, Yabexe.com will never charge an Insertion fee and an option for a free store will always be available, allowing all members to be able to create free listings if they desire.

Of those small fees we do charge (all lower than eBay), for optional enhancements to listings, we have no plans on increasing fees in a year, or at any time in the future. We have done the math and the calculations. As the economy stands now, our formula for success will be able to withstand any future costs incurred to keep Yabexe.com healthy. Also note that Yabexe.com only allows Americans and Canadians for membership. No hassles with overseas sellers and the customs laws of both countries are similar, which means far fewer problems when shipping items!

Also know that every registration is checked with a personal phone call from a staff member, or myself. We make sure that the phone number given us is legitimate and may review the address information provided. This is done to immediately eliminate those who register with the intent to deceive our members. If the member wants to further verify and show others that the information he provided to us is current there is also a Member Verification Program available that will display a special icon for that member.

Are You Willing To Use An Alternate?

I know that most people arrive to website, look around and judge its' value on how many people are already there. For a new website it the most difficult part of success. Every webmaster would like to build a website and have a million people instantly register. It just doesn't happen that quickly, which is why I'm hoping you will at least try Yabexe.com. List your items here, while still listing them with eBay, though I hope you will tell others that you have items on Yabexe.com. For sellers, it means that you will make more money when people buy through this website, rather than eBay. For buyers it can mean they will pay less because you are able to pass on your savings in fees, to them. The fact is, the more items you list, the more populated the website becomes which increases the appeal of Yabexe.com to visitors looking to buy an item. The question is, Are you willing be among the first to try something new?

What We Offer

What is offered you now is an opportunity to begin again with an auction site that gets back to the basics of a service website for the "small" user looking to make a few dollars on items they want to sell. Yes, Yabexe.com has virtually everything eBay offers because the foundation of the eBay website script is sound. It is eBay's greed and lack of customer service that has become intolerable.

Yes, we have feedback, stores, picture uploading, contact seller, Buy Out (same as eBay's copyrighted "Buy It Now"), among all the other features found on eBay. However, we also have additional features like "Swap" (accepting offers to exchange items of equal value), Freelance Auctions (also known as "Reverse Auctions") that allow you to request bids on services or needs you may have, anti-sniping technology, a Free Ads area (if you want to give an item away), and much more.

We have even instituted an Affiliate Program, whereby you can earn money for those you direct to us. You will earn for increasing membership and even earn a percentage of the money when the members you referred fund their accounts.

The plan is to make buying and selling fun again, as well as profitable and less risky. More interactivity with members to win cash and prizes will follow.

More In Your Pocket!

To be frank, Yabexe.com is not looking to become another eBay and a multi-million dollar corporation that has to answer to stockholders. We only hope to make enough money for this site to pay for itself, cover the costs of advertising, and our time, while providing our members with a less expensive, hassle-free alternative to eBay.

The following are only a few of the reasons you should register:

No Overseas Members (U.S. & Canada Only!)
$5 Credit In Your Account
Free Store
No Insertion Fee
Verified Member Program

If you are among the first here because you saw our advertising on the Internet, heard our advertisements on the radio, saw our newspaper ads, or whether you just stumbled in, we need you to register and list an item.
