Buy Steampunk Online -- My newest creation

[Haltingpoint]

Hi everybody. You may or may not be familiar with my site, BuySteampunk.com, but I'd like to introduce it to you nonetheless as it has undergone a complete makeover!

It is still being polished up and there are a couple loose cogs to be hammered out, but I'd love to know what you think of the new look and feel!

We have categories for a wide range of things so you can buy steampunk clothing, steampunk goggles and steampunk jewelry off of eBay, and it updates every time you reload!

I wasn't sure if this was the appropriate place to post this, however this is my own "invention" as I don't really have a shop to speak of here in the city. I built the site myself and believe me, many hours have been sunk into it! Any feedback on the site is much appreciated.

All the best,
Mike

Yes, it's fine to post such things. Welcome aboard.

Though, in my eyes, it just seems to be an affiliate site for ebay listings under the keyword 'steampunk', so not really all that helpful, no offense. Feel free to add a link to this site under your 'forums' link (that doesnt work right now)

Thanks for the feedback. The site is monetized by the eBay affiliate program, but it adds value by categorizing things in a way that is useful for the steampunk community because eBay does not recognize "steampunk" the way we do. For instance, the clothing category on the site combines searches from a wide range of categories, which helps save someone a lot of time if they want to just browse what new steampunk clothing options are available on eBay.

I figure its more helpful than having ads all over the site, and it helps keep the site going. I'm working on fixing some of the big bugs right, but once that's done, my focus will be on content in the form of new blog posts, so there will be value there as well.

Again, thanks for the feedback and glad you like it.
