What is RSS?
Really Simple Syndication (RSS) is an XML-based format for content distribution that includes headlines, summaries and links. These feeds are often referred to as channels. Bumblebee Auctions now offers RSS
channels that you can use to keep up to date with all the items we
are offering for sale, or to follow a subset based on a category or Police
Force.
