Why spend $50k to build something you can't follow through to completion? If there isn't enough intrinsic value for you to set it up as a real service yourself, what makes you think people will buy it?

(Honest, not rhetorical questions. The Internet can mangle your tone.)

Spollow was one of the ideas we incubated. Our other project has gained significant traction with over 5m pageviews and 1,000 registered users in about a week. So we want to focus on this only going forward due to resource constraints. And selling Spollow will create more runway for us...

BTW, we did not spend $50k :) By expenses I meant actual time spent on building the software.

I see it's on the front page. Spollow was one of the ideas that we worked on. We currently don't have bandwidth to give the time commitment it deserves to continue with it. Hence, we are selling it on eBay to recover for expenses.

Founder here. We have seventy one buyers and one agent. However, we are not selling user data but software.
