RESEARCH TRIANGLE PARK, N.C. (BUSINESS WIRE) - Whether you are looking for a
scale model Harley-Davidson, or one of thousands of other automobilia
collectibles, Mobilia.com is the place for you.
The technology behind this site for auto toys and collectibles is OpenSite
Auction from OpenSite Technologies, Inc. With over 50% market share,
OpenSite Technologies proves to be the market leader in Internet auction
technology.

At Mobilia.com, people can bid, buy, sell and/or trade auto collectibles,

Mobilia.com storefront. Thousands of items have already been consigned to
appear this month at Mobilia.com, including toy cars, gas station signs,

"Mobilia.com is the logical extension of the highly successful collector's

over the world. We are able to offer a real-time auction, fixed price store,
as well as pricing guides and auction results. At the same time, we want to
ensure that visitors are provided with the most pleasant and secure online
experience possible. We chose OpenSite's auction software for its
ease-of-use for the customer and combination of auction and set price
selling formats."

"Not only is the Mobilia.com auction site tremendously significant to the
automobilia market, but the size and scope of this auction allows OpenSite
to showcase the extensive capabilities of our product, OpenSite Auction,"
