Didn't know the boycott was this week. I used to have a business selling rare rock and roll records mailorder (this was before the Net) so I know something about collectors and dealers. My guess, maybe a 5% drop in eBay traffic (if that), if a collector or dealer sees something they really want, they will bid on it. We shall see. If not, I'll wait a few weeks and re-list it. Aargh.

Because Ebay does think they own the auction market - they have changed some of the fees and rules so that there is a strike this week - no buying, selling or listing. It will be interesting to see how many were actually involved and what the effect was. You may not get much action on Ebay this week anyway.
