Here is a can of worms....If I owned the forum I would....

1. Maybe it is the OCD in me or maybe I just enjoy browsing through every catalogue, but I wouldn't use an aggregate search function of all auctions.

2. If the goal is to grow membership, I think a paid subscription model is not the best idea. There has been talk for years about the possibility of a nominal fee for major sites such as Twitter and Facebook and there are reasons it has never come to pass. Bottom line is that a large number of people are opposed for various reasons. Too cheap, can't afford, concern of having credit card information stored etc. Sure, many who are here may pay initially, but new membership will be deterred and I suspect would be a shrinking business model. I for one am thankful Leon has kept it free and hope he can keep it or make it profitable through use of advertising.
