    but these are "Handpicked Pros" with "Upfront Prices" and a "Happiness Guarantee"

    https://www.amazon.com/services/

    Sadly, they don't have the Aerial Yoga Classes available just yet.

    In all honesty, I think it could work very well, I always thought that we need an 'ebay for services' that didn't suck. Things like rated people are OK, but don't have the critical mass, in the same way ebay is still somehow the best auction site, not because the others aren't better, but because no one uses them.

    There is a joke I want to make about a well known brand of weed killer. Something about having to Roundup the volunteers for that service....

    As it's .com, at least we shouldn't have to have a grinning loon on the uk home page trumpeting how they started with one back lawn last week & now they've a customer base covering an area the size of the Peak District.
