Actually I think there are enough of us members to support both of these ladies. I always like to support the small business person when I can.
The size of some of the stashes I've seen here are large enough to make these women RICH. LOL

I love the size of the organizers gwimpylou - my sister, Gwen - is selling . They fit my bookshelves perfectly and a few of mine have 10+ yard pieces wrapped around them. I also like that the plastic is cut with the smooth side against my fabric instead of the rough holes the other direction. I tried out other sizes and found that by far this size worked best for me. (8 x 11 3/4)
I have tried to cut the plastic myself with an exacto knife and with a good pair of scissors and it is a real pain to get smooth. Having the right tools to cut this plastic is important in order to get a smooth edge. Gwimpylou is the owner of a small sign shop, which uses this coroplast for signage and had the right tools to cut the plastic smoothly. She started doing this as a favor to her sister (me) to help me get organized.
I was the one who suggested she make these available on e-bay. It does take time and effort to cut these boards to the right size. Not only that, but she has to purchase the coroplast in bulk to be able to sell it as cheaply as she is for quilt boards and has to pay for E-bay fees and Paypal fees. She can make much more money using the plastic for signs, but she does this to supplement her income as a single, homeschool mom.

You said it best MistyMarie.
The only thing you forgot to say is that your sister is wonderful to deal with, provides a quality product at a very reasonable price, and that she gives very good service by shipping orders immediately.
I am her most satisfied customer, second only to you.
