They will be a legitimate business Qatari entity to offer protection for the buyer and seller similar to eBay. Offer a payment service between buyer and seller. Delivery liaison service. I would not be surprised if eBay bought-out qbay in couple years from now.
I would be wary of other companies Not based in Qatar, such as ewset trying to do the same Ive seen a couple of these sites get blocked by Qtel from request of ministry of commerce over the years. They don't even draw the right amount or traffic to make it worthwhile to post your things on them. they they are not Qatari entities or have legal presence here. PlanetQatar was one of them that was forced to shut down.
You just cant simply create a web site to conduct any kind of trade in Qatar and open it.

That front page at Qbay is just a place holder.
Like people have said they will open in a week.
