    Good Points: Cut-price tat. Search function seems okay.


    Bad Points: Poor design and navigation means that this site is a headache to look at. The main dashboard is cluttered and ugly. The site feels as though it has been knocked up by someone in their bedroom.


    General comments: Scant regard has been paid to the user experience. The left-side navigation tree appears to be fairly random and is not a reliable tool to drill down to an auction category.

    In terms of their available auctions, think 'car boot sale' - most of the sellers appear to be low-end drop-ship agents, all flogging the same sort of guff. There doesn't seem to be an awful lot of selling activity, currently.

    The much vaunted mobile phone access seems to be prohibitively expensive (25p on top of network rate or £1 for an SMS alert based on a set of search criteria).

    The people who run the site claim that they are not trying to make a quick profit and to prove it they proudly display their 'Community Shield' - a proportion of add-on fees available periodically as an auction lot. You are invited to bid for the shield pot, with the money going to your nominated charity. The pot was originally to be auctioned monthly with the first couple of months each boosted by a donation from the owners of £1,000. This was thereafter downgraded to quarterly, with only the first pot to be subsidised. Despite having been live for over six-months there has currently been no Community Shield auction.

    In summary, this site is at best amateurish. Ebay will not be worried.

    You can use your mobile on the Hunt For It auction website to bid for items, so you don't have to sit at your computer all day. There are loads of items on sale, and it is a really easy website to navigate, and it's also free to list items.

    This is a great auction site. It's easier to use than any others I've tried. The mobile idea is really clever as well. You get paid each time someone bids for your item using the text system! I thoroughly recommended site!!!
