OnBuy
OnBuy.com is the UK's leading alternative to Amazon & eBay. In addition to not competing with their sellers (à la Amazon), OnBuy offers very competitive fees and invests heavily in marketing to ensure your products will be found. The story of OnBuy's growth is a great one to follow by any metric, but as far as eCommerce Marketplaces are concerned, you'd be mad not to be selling on OnBuy!
