Mechaworx Welcomes It's Newest Link Partner Toyplug.com

At last, a viable alternative to Ebay. Here comes Toyplug.com, Mechaworx' newest link partner. We like this site so much that now you can see their banner displayed under the Recommended Sites to the left on every page of Mechaworx.com. Toyplug is a toy auction site that offers collectors and sellers an alternative to sell their new and vintage toys other than Ebay. As you may know Ebay is no longer "The World's Online Marketplace" its more like "The Worlds Online Flea Market." Sellers keep loosing money due to increased fees hand-over-fist and even collectors get ripped off due to items either never arriving or not as described and Ebay just laughs all the way to the bank.<
