It doesn't work like that, not everyone who is invited gets invites straight away, if any at all.

Selling them for what exactly?
They are selling for $0.99 on eBay so you're not exactly going to make a packet from it.

Star, if and when I get invites I'll see if I can keep one spare for you. Otherwise eBay might be a good bet. If you really want a good addy, I guess $0.99 isn't exactly a lot!

I reckon that people caught selling invites should be banned from Gmail.

I agree, www.gmailswap.com is a laugh though, you should see some of the weird offers on there!

I think google like the idea of people paying for it. It means that when the service is publicly open lots of people are going to rush to it.

Persoanlly I can have any username I like at my own email server, and I know that the emails in it aren't going to potentially incriminate me or the person who sends it to me for some trumped up charges in 20 years time or something :-)
