Proof of Usefulness Score

You're In Business

The project appears to be a standard local antique buying business with a submission heavily penalized for hyperbolic claims (e.g., 'most people have used my product') and lack of verifiable data. The claimed team size of 125 is disproportionate to the description and likely inaccurate. The 'Internet' technology citation indicates no specific technical innovation.
