I just caught this article after reading the one tlccomp posted about the IRS.

This would cause a big shift in chip prices which have been depressed lately by a few huge Chinese scrappers entering the market with large inventories and throughput. Also, with the Chinese paying no listing fees they have had a dramatic edge. I must say I think that is BS and would not mind seeing it go. With the Chinese having to list on European or American E-bay the field would be much more level. What do you all think? |

Hong Kong and other places are in Ebay Italy, and the prices are not low as one would expect. And you have shipping too.
Prices are going to rise. |

Yes, ebay.com.cn will close in 2007. 
Why?
Because other auction sites(taobao.com and ... ) in China are all free(no listing fees and ...) for seller.

Wow that sounds good 
Polish eBay don't have chance to fight with Allegro.pl because of twice or more higher fees. Now ebay.pl is free but I think eBay Giant will not be happy with very low fees at opening worldwide connections with polish auctions. It will be always messy and free auctions or will be dead same like chinese.
