They are starting to abuse their quasi-monopoly. So it is time to divest. But what are good alternatives? And why?

Well, there's Yahoo! Auctions ( http://auctions.yahoo.com ) and uBid ( http://www.ubid.com ), if you're specifically looking for auction sites...although I doubt that either one gets nearly as much traffic as eBay.

Try www.craigslist.com (choose the city you live in, note that it defaults to San Francisco). Craig's List is owned by eBay now, but is a free site for local classified ads.
Also Microsoft Live Expo is a similar concept (expo.live.com).
You can also use Amazon.com.

Amazon.com is good. You can find almost anything on there, with the exception of the bootleg junk, and you can avoid the bidding. They almost always have shipping specials too.

Amazon and Google are getting into it more, because of the very reason you mention. eBay is getting too big for their britches. They are crapping on everyone.

Craigslist.org... This is a web 2.0 example... No cost to consumers.
