Ask HN: Review our site, ListBite (social classifieds) (opens in new tab)

If I'm buying a game, do I really care whether they are in London or Essex? No, I don't - the game is going in the post anyway.

The UK list is a bit grim at the moment, mainly because you are mixing cities and counties into the same list. That comes across as strange, almost as if you are making a category error. Have you though of sticking to counties, or using sythentic regions (The South East, The Northwest, the Midlands etc).

good question. We are trying to be more of a social classifieds site where for example users can chat online with the seller or private message them. Sellers can also upload a profile so buyers may feel more comfortable with them.

Also, we are aggregating other sites such as cars.com on the us site and other local classifieds data, so it's easier to find stuff in one place.

But definitely that where the challenge lies.

True, I've had some interest from some regional car dealers so definitely going narrower is an option. To really use the social features you have to be logged in and have a profile in mylistbite, but still want to expand the social network part. Also, trying to include it in facebook as an app which hopefully will give some traction.
