From Webmaster Pete:

Hello All!

I'm pleased to announce that in the next few weeks, the DIS will be adding it's own Auction site!! DISAuctions will be very similar to EBay in it's functionality, and will allow our visitors to offer up items for auction, as well as bid on various items. I decided to release this info now (before we go live) so that those of you who have things they would like to auction can start getting them together The auctions will certainly contain many Disney related items, but we are not limiting the auctions just to those. You'll be able to offer anything (within reason....no Kidneys or Cinderellas Royal Table reservations please ). Also, DIS members that have auctions on our site will be able to reference those auctions within their signatures (something we currently do not allow for EBay auctions).

So, I just wanted to let everyone know about this so you can all get ready!! I don't have an exact release date set yet, but expect to see it in the next few weeks.

Thanks,
Pete

Hey they're my kidneys and if I want to auction them to pay for Disney trips I think I should be able to. :-)

Sorry just couldn't help myself.

You have GOT to be joking!!! Were they giving the ressie away to the first person or actually selling it?!?!? All I can do is shake my head...unreal! :mad:

Glad to hear you will allow non Disney stuff for the auction. I couldn't bear to part with any of my Disney stuff.

Can't wait!

I am just returning to the boards after being gone for about 7-8 months. Can anyone tell me where to go for these auctions?


Thanks,

As far as I know, there are still a few "kinks" in the auction.... I will see if I can get a ETA for you :D

Just thought I would follow up with those who are asking - it appears that barring any new kinks, the auction will be up and running around the 1st of July... will keep you posted if there are any new updates or changes!

Thanks all!

:cool: It will be so cool to buy/sell here at DIS...A targeted market and (hopefully) support for this wonderful site all at the same time!

Keep up the great work, Pete!
And thanks to all of the terrific moderators, too ! :D
