I tried it as a user when it was just new and fully hyped, I barely got it to work, slow and annoying, so I never tried it again.
Ebay is terrible, and OpenBazaar managed to be worse.

This was the version 1.0 of OpenBazaar, which had some fundamental limitations and wasn't very user-friendly.

The new 2.0 came out last week, and it's completely different. It uses IPFS so stores are always online, it's Tor-compatible, and it's much more stable and user-friendly. Definitely don't judge OpenBazaar until you've tried the new version:

I work on it so if anyone has questions, let me know.
