Hi all,
I had this idea of creating an auction ebay-type website for everyone to buy, sell or trade their BMW stuff, and like ebay buyers and sellers can post feedback to know who to buy from (or sell to) and who to avoid.
The website will be free, so no one will be charged to buy or sell. I will however have some ads on the site, but that's about it. All I need to know if the people here will be interested and will use it or not, because creating the site will take some time and work. Let me know if you have any questions.

You should expand on all autos, but starting with BMW is a good idea. I'd be interested. Good luck. Are you a programmer?
I would say that I'm more of a designer than a programmer, but I do both. I run my own web design/hosting firm and been doing very well. It's a lot of fun and work on a lot of interesting web projects.
This BMW site is something I just wanted to do for fun and for my love of BMW's.

Okay, seems like a number of you are interested in an auction website for BMW. I will start working on this site soon, but for now how about some suggestions for names. Here are a couple of my ideas:
BimmerBay.com
BMWbuysellTrade.com
I honestly can't think of anything else. How about some suggestions? Please make sure your suggestions for names are available. You can simply go to my hosting site and see if the domain name is available. The link is in my sig.
BimmerBay.com
BMWbuysellTrade.com

Hi
Think its a good idea, members will make the right price etc but what about helping other members out? I realise that most "E60" owners are well "off" but it would be nice for some guys to offer surplus items for delivery cost only.
Best regards,
Jonathan

I like BimmerBay, but would worry the other "Bay" boys might have a problem with it.
