eBay: Where's Oprah When You Need Her?

another great article mr. la rouche, thank you.

'eBay will be a safe and fun place to shop after May. I for one look forward to it!' fortunately tippie, i no longer have use for my bidder/blocker option. you'd most certainly be on it.

ebay wants to cleanse themselves of their members and eliminate those who don’t fit managements new desired profile. during this process they have included members who have made them the successful company they once were.

change can be good, however, they have missed the mark on how far they are taking changes while losing integrity along the way. citing one recent example (there are many): the conflicting stories given for what has been named ‘mystery auction listings’ from the Shopping dot com site (sdc). Initial explanation: it was a glitch in the system, next: limited test that ran its course; then: it was an accident; finally they settled on the test excuse. do they really think everyone outside their executive offices are that stupid and can't see thru the curtain? what type of company operates in that kind of vacuum?

in essence what ebay has done is to create opportunities for other companies to emerge who have welcomed buyers and sellers with respect, realistic fees, appreciation and customer service (ebay never got that concept). esty.com, online auctions.com and ioffer.com, to name a few. ebay has spun off their own company to others and will not survive at the level demanded by stockholders and the marketplace.

hmmm, did they overspend their pr and marketing budgets on all of their recent promos to drown out our noise, thus the employee layoffs?

everything ebay has been doing since the boycott started, points to their desire to create mass confusion so the stockholders will not be able to distinguish what the real problems are.

eBay has lost their integrity a long time ago, in life and business they are basic requirements. we can see the wizard behind the curtain, hopefully the stockholders will too.

Leaving eBay: Not as Easy as It Sounds

interesting article mr. larouche, thank you. yes, leaving was emotional, but eBay made it VERY easy to leave and not look back. sell name or eBay business?? in all good conscience, doubtful if anyone could seriously consider selling a castle on a sinking island.

How Does the Boycott Impact eBay?

positive changes to the greedbay feedback system should have focused on eliminating personal comments; expand the 1-5 rating system (since that is already in effect) which includes ratings of both the buyer and seller; and qualifying buyers as they have sellers. with all their billions they could monitor issues that arise, not create a one sided power. holding payments 21 days and expecting shipment of goods is just outrageous, isn’t it obvious they want to weed out everyone except mega sellers? an alternative with the same following may not be evident-----yet (google, are you listening?). more options are out there that are at least worth a try. the boycott is turning into an exodus and at some point will have an impact that ebay will never recover from.
