  HI, I'm Bill. Bonanzle is the web site that I've spent the last three years building.

  Why? At first, I built it because I took offense that there was so much busywork involved in selling stuff online. There needed to be a marketplace that was "dumb simple" to use. We're constantly working toward that vision.

  But we have an even more ambitious goal. Though Bonanzle has rapidly grown to more than one million different people who visit every month, we've become known for having a community so friendly that it feels like you're spending time with a small group of your most upbeat friends. This community has helped to define our "real" vision: to become the most enjoyable social shopping experience for all those looking to buy and sell "everything but the ordinary."

  Bonanzle members often refer to themselves as "extended family," and they are always happy to welcome a new face into the club (go say "Hi I'm new and I like Bonanzle" in the "Welcome to Bonanzle" forum if you'd like to test that theory).

  As for me... In the analog world, my interests include (bubble baths and long walks on the beach and) basketball, microbrews, nachos (I'm the proud owner of http://www.ultimatenacho.com), programming (C++ in a past life, Ruby on Rails these days), listening to music, and barbecuing.

Personal Endorsements of bharding

RoxannMi (359) wrote on October 26

Bill is a wonderful person with a great sense of humor. He has built a “fantastic” site. Really enjoy conversing with him whenever I get the chance (which is not often). He needs to add a new item (or items) to his wish list. Hopefully an inexpensive one something in the five to ten dollar range LOL. That will make it possible for people to show him how much we all love him!

How can you go wrong with dealing with Bonanzles Daddy!
Bill has always gone over and above for his sellers here…and his customer srevice is an example everyone should follow!

I don’t know you, but I will endorse you for these reasons:

-The people are friendly, and genuinely hope others have success as well.
-In addition to the forums, sellers and buyers can post comments in each other’s booth, which brings the idea of social-networking with e-commerce. That is just fantastic!!
-It’s marketed towards various demographics.
-It recognizes the fact that consumers may like the convenience of big-box stores and giant corporate e-retailers, but still want a person-to-person buying experience, which is valued on Bonanzle.
-Hopefully, its simplicity will not change. That is what differientates Bonanzle from competitors.

Thank you, and whomever else has worked on Bonanzle.
God Bless!
