eBay's Latest Screw-Up
I thought it was priceless!
Could not be more true!
"Ebay stock continues to wander aimlessly in the American financial desert, hungover from its star status in the first half of the decade. "
eBay's Latest Screw-Up
The new best match is going to kill the sellers plain and simple.
In My catagory I sell custom made clothing.
Very expensive pieces that are listed using the exact same words for search to cover all possible ways a buyer would search. I have always used the exact same wording which gave me more lookers.If I have 30 items listed using the exact same words in search my sales are over with.
Because all 30 pieces would be very differant originals, but search will only show one!
So sales will tank to 300.00 for one item instead of selling maybe 25 items or more. My sales were mostly 95% sell thru always untill best match started. Now there are very few hits on them .
Ebay is badly broken!
As for Scot!
Scot must be a pumper!
Wake up Scot if ebay lost all auction sales ebay would die a very fast death.
Pay Pal is not a bank and not FDIC approved.
Pay Pal will only carry ebay on its back just so far.
eBay's stock repurchase programe has suffered a loss in excess of 7 Billion dollars, about 4 times the size of the skype write off. Investers are taking stock of those write offs and it looks like they prefer stock dividends to stock repurchases....on ebays part.
The investers have taken note of what is happening and say ebay has no clear direction at this point.
The stock is presently on a dead cat bounce the last couple of days before it slides back on down again.
Pump on Scot!
New Selling Form Sinks eBay Sellers
he is not going to have any left on the sight! Ebay
Live was a testament to how bad things have gotten
this year. The World Wide seller boycotts and the
sellers that have just up and closed up shop there
are effecting the listing counts. Even ebays new pet
Buy.com cant pad up the listing counts along with
ebays tests auctions combined.
Stocks have dropped like a lead ball and are not
recovering. When the Quarterly report comes out
I think the stock holders are going to see what is
happening. Ebay has been dropped from the top
stocks list and Meg Whitman has was selling off
huge blocks of her stock just before the May
date when new changes took effect. Can we
say SEC needs to look into things?
Ebay is buying up stock fast. Is that to prevent
a take over or?????????
AS for a new listing form ( E.....gads), we just got over the night mares from the last SYI3 form they released with tons of bad code and half of it didnt work right for months and months! Here we go again.......
Not for me, Im out of there for good!
It can only get worse from here!
Stifel Upgrades eBay to Buy
JD has scrambled just about everything on ebay in an attempt to make it into the new Amazon. What JD fails to understand is that Ebay was built on the Auction business
and if he turns it into just another online Market place like Amazon it will lose its uniqueness. The fact that anyone could find anything on ebay will be lost!
JD has shackled the sellers to the point where they are just leaving for other Auction houses. Look at the numbers of the others. They have grown by leaps and bounds since all the new changes have taken effect.
And God forbid he has more changes coming this year.
There is a protest planned for the Ebay live and the Stock Holders meeting this month.
Mr DEvitt needs to take those rose colored glasses off?
How Donahoe Broke eBay
They hire people to code that need to go back to High School and start all over. The script on the ebay site is kindergardenish and so badly done that they cant get half of it fixed.
The latest round of new findings (search) (SYI3) (feedback) (pay Pal 21 day holds on funds) And (WORST MATCH) are the straws that broke the sellers backs. Greed is what drives it all. And the Empire is going to fall from it.
eBay's Death by a Thousand Cuts
You hit the nail on the head. Its sad what is heppening to ebay. It once was a great place to sell anything and buy on.
Those days are long gone and its becoming impossible to believe anything ebay says anymore.
