eBay Meetups

[sharptonguesoftheart]

I'm fairly active on meetup, and have started investigating setting up an eBay meetup. There are quite a few in the US, but only one small one in Aus (Melbourne).

I think it seems a fairly obvious thing to do, to start an eBay meetup here in Sydney, particularly with the Driving Business Online roadshow being run by PayPal.

I'm puzzled at the apparent lack of current activity. So my questions ...

* Any who knows of similar groups that started and closed, and their history.

* Anyone interested in starting such a group in your local area ? If so, let's network.

I've also contacted PayPal DMO and cheekily asked if they might set up some infrastructure and support to encourage the formation of such groups.

Not sure if and/or what time I can get there Donna but I still hope to join you if they let me out of Jury duty.  Do you know if Swiss Grand is just the meeting place or if they will move on from there?

sharptonguesofheart you should consider attending PeSA:

There you will meet hundreds of sellers from around Australia as well as some of the eBay and PayPal Australia staff.

Hi Sonia

We are meeting there for drinks, haven't checked the menu yet, if the weather is nice there are a load of choices, one of my friends is playing at the Beach Road from 8 pm so really keen to get there at some stage.

Hope you can make it 🙂
