  okay. 'market' may not be a suitable word. put it simply, which of these two auction sites do you bid more often?

  thanks for replying.. as mention above, i am looking for a consensus. a more popular site would naturally have more bidders, thus a healthier margin for profit.

  wrong thinking
  
  say, Auction site A is very popular, has 200 users...but all ngiao kia......not willing to bid high price
  Auction site B may not have as high traffic, only 50 users....but most of them are sincere buyers.....willing to offer high price
  
  u can monitor the sites to see the traffice and responses of the category where ur pdt will be.......
  make some effort to do research urself

  true. i will bear that in mind. i have been monitoring both sites for some time now. just thought that some feedbacks from the most active local forum would help hasten the research process.

  Nuts. People go there deliberately to find pirated goods.
  
  However if you wish, you can also buy original new and original used.

  My friend who frequently sells her products advised me that to sell to local, use yahoo.... sell to overseas, use ebay.
