    This sounds like a business opportunity. We need a new auction site! Someone go do this, make a few billion $, and start a new pinball company!!

    Quoted from ForceFlow:

    ebay had the advantage of basically being the first one on the block and became well-known and popular as the Internet grew up. It would be incredibly difficult to recreate that perfect storm.
    If you search for ebay alternatives, there are a few, but they aren't really well-known, even less so to the average person. ebay is kind of the universal gold standard for selling stuff on the Internet.

    Go ask MySpace how the first-mover concept worked out.

    If you zoom out a bit, it is clear that the most popular internet services change over time.
