Been with Listia for a few years now, and let me say, it is nice to see some things have changed for the better. However, a lot of things I see, since taking a year off, may pose a problem. For one, the price tag on these auctions are a little too high. I see auctions on items such as shoelaces and toddler pull-ups that sell for close to half million credits. A bit ridiculous if you ask me. Someone was selling an xbox 360, used with a few games and a controller, and with all cords for over 5M credits. That was the equivalent exchange price of over $275 when BRAND NEW models with same included things cost $179 at retail stores. Also, with such high credit auctions for very cheap items, I fear the value of the credits will decrease significantly, almost like a recession. There is no way new members will be able to win some auctions on things they really want. I fear this app is using the already existing members and their way of auctioning things off to make money, as the auctions get expensive, the people are pushed to purchase credits. They will find themselves spending hundreds of real dollars for credits than actually winning an auction.
There is one thing that is bothering me, and I believe it is a bug. I am on an Apple iPad mini, and whenever I am scrolling through the app, I keep being redirected like every 2-3 minutes to my Safari app which then loads up a page with an advertisement. Please fix this as it is getting pretty annoying. My rating shall remain the same, after all these years, until this redirecting ad problem is solved.
