Great news but the winner in this category needs to be as close to DAN as possible...
1. A market place that shows ALL listings on the platform
2. A searchable Database
3. Member Storefronts
4. Dedicated URL to each member store
5. Shareable links for searches in member stores, ie for .com's .ca etc.
6. Timely payouts
7. Self brokering
8. Push in for Payment at reduced commission rate
Those are probably some of the main points needed
