I mean no disrespect to the chaps at ebay, but the commercial posters who fill areas with tat are a bit annoying (try looking for something "garmin" for example). Hopefully, as this site is so "specific" it will be easy to browse, and all boaty is a mega bonus.
I suspect "Buyer Beware" is gonna be the motto here tho, as hooky boaty stuff is a growing industry, and its not the problem of the host to find out whether the gear is legit. None the less, looking forward to seeing it grow.
On the chandleryauction website, sellers' e-mail addresses are visible for anyone to see (including computers which harvest e-mail addresses to add to spam lists). In contrast, if you look at something like Ebay, you'll find that there's quite a high level of security over e-mail addresses.
