Is there any interest in a platform specifically created for group buys and bundle splitting?

Maybe, depends on how easy it is to use. Currently, we have a Group Buy Steam group for this purpose, which is fine in most cases, but searching sucks.

Yeah, that is what I had in mind, searching functionality to find any bundle sharing for specific bundles or currently bundles game.

I don't really plan on adding fees or ads. (as long as the traffic isn't too heavy, in that case I'll try to maintain it off donations)

I guess the main question is what advantages would that platform offer over organizing Group-Buys the old fashioned way through the GroupBuy Steam group ?

I personally already have ~ 700 accounts on various websites and am not gonna create more unless there is a good reason for it.

Well, mainly convenience and organization (especially for things like rep), people can do giveaways using community threads as well. But we have this site because it is more convenient and organized. And that's why I'm not just trying to sell it, just looking if people actually have interest in it, so if they do, I'll create it, not the other way around of me simply trying to create interest in it. So if you ok with what tyhere is, I don't want to bother creating another account, that's perfectly fine.

I can't speak for others but for me personally that wouldn't be a reason to register for another site.

As far as I know rep isn't really a huge concern when it comes to GroupBuys because when there have repeatedly been problems with a host they'll be banned from the group anyway.

This actually looks pretty cool... and pretty empty. :-(
Only one bundle split going on and a few group buys.
But I'll be sure to keep an eye on it! Thanks!

Thanks, would a bummer to create something just to find out it already exists.

Thought so, It's still WIP, but already useable.
