The site's ultimate example of stupidity is the fact that it is available in two languages - English and Spanish! Excuse me? Have I woken up in L.A.?

Surely I am not the only person who considers that site to be something a dog would be ashamed to see on the footpath behind it . . .

I have looked at a few other auction sites that have started since Trademe and none of them even come close.
