BIDBAY AUCTIONS

i have built a site twice the size of ebay and intend offering an online auction with more features, i was once a seller on ebay and lost a lot of money so now i want to make my site and overtake ebay with a better and bigger auction site, im not afraid of the competition, i was wondering why seaside resorts have not been suid as they use bay in the name, and besides a bay is a trap with three sides blocking you in and with only one way out, a lot are afraid to leave, my site will be a haven or a harbor and come and go as you please, bidbay should not be told or ordered to stop as a bay is not a name and also bay is a seaside place not an auction,what about anchorbay and others too, does ebay intend suing them because of the name bay,i will help bidbay if i were asked as in my opinion they have done nothing wrong, but on saying that i dont know all the facts so i could be wrong, i will continue with my site and hopefully be bigger than ebay, time will tell

bidbay stocks

since bidbay would not answer the question of their stock i think ebay should buy every one who got 5 shares of bidbay when it first came about and take over bidbay

BidBay is gone, kaput, out of business. The Greek tycoon sold out to some one else as soon as he bit the dust in the law suit. The domain now belongs to ebay.com once again. Forget your stocks, you got taken! He probably absconded with your bucks.

Why should ebay buy you any stock? You left there to go to BidBay, your bad, not theirs. They didn't leave you! I think it's time you got a clue.

Ok,how come I dont see anyone mentioning what "ebay" stands for as a meaning? Correct me if I'm wrong but doesnt it come from "East Bay" ? because ebay is in the east bay? and how can you claim the word "bay" in any meaning or any name.I live in the BAY AREA and there are multiple business's that use "EAST BAY" or the word BAY in their business names.Its in the dictionary,not a unique word by no means.I like how auctioneering used the definition of " a trap with 3 sides blocking you in" yah,ebay has trapped alot of people into relying on them to make a living by selling on the site and building a clientel,then changing the rules and policies to better profit only for ebays gain.I hope EBAY sinks deep into the BAY.
