hi y'all,
i been reading a lot of threads here about y'all complaining the site is boring, about too many auctions left here too long, and lots of other problems. let me clue you guys in on somethin' as one of the original members of delcampe, member #301.... sebastien has been extremely generous from the start by trying to keep costs to a minimum to all the members. if you left your auctions on ebay for the length of time i have, what do you think that would have cost me or YOU? i know, a damn fortune, that's what. sebastien hasn't charged me a dime for renting his space. only a 4% fee since he started charging anything. and as for the clubs, that all voluntary. if you want the perks, you pay for them, just like when you fly first class. when the server problem came along in the u.s., he didn't come to anyone and ask for money. he thought of a solution and took it upon himself to finance in his own way. and again, no expenses out of my pocket. no fee increases or other fees. do you find that on ebay, HELL NO YOU DON'T. so when i hear someone say the site is 'boring', well, i say. 'it's an auction, not a video game.' lighten up on sebastien and enjoy what's here. and what we have. it is a great site with great support at a great price. 'nuff said.

merci et a bientot,
cajunsr.
