As I understand it will be very similar to eBay with negotiations directly between seller and buyer. This will be great!

Hi All,

First of all thanks for the interest in the new site. This thing has been a HUGE project and now that it's all built, I can't WAIT to launch it to the magic community.

This new website, which has been in the works for the past year, contains one of the most powerful and feature packed auction systems on the internet as well as individual web stores for illusion builders within the site. These stores will make it incredibly easy to publish and sell your products online. While other magic and illusion auction sites have and do exist, this site will be different. VERY!

It is important to stress that this website will be self-running and fully automated, (In the same way that eBay is) eliminating the middle man. The site is already being populated with products from some of the top illusion builders in the business. Even on the first day live, there will be some fantastic magic products to browse through.

I will be placing a list of key features on the current landing page for the site in the next day or two. My favorite has to be the capability to upload a video of the illusion in performance to your listing!

All the best, and I can't WAIT to go live,

Chris.

Chris,
Wishing you the very very best in this endeavor. Having a hard time holding my biological functions waiting for this site to materialize.
Go get 'em Chris!

Do not go where the path may lead, but go instead where there is no path and leave a trail.

This is fantastic. I can't stand the 1990's site that the MagicAuction still has. Not to mention, they are slow as well. Honestly, this will be great and I really look forward to it. Good luck Chris!!

Thanks for the comments guys!

I'm doing some light testing and finishing up content for the Help Section on the website as we speak and I am happy to say that everything is running as smooth as butter. I also just added another professional builder to the site today. We will have some fantastic items up for sale and auction on launch day. A list of those builders will be released closer to the end of the January.

A short list of some of the key features is also now available on the temp site. I will add more to the list as we get closer to February.

Thanks again for the warm wishes and comments.
