eBay will lose because they have something to lose...sellers. The age old idea of proximity to market is no longer an issue.
The sellers have nothing to lose....wherever the sellers go, the buyers will follow....because they have to if they want the item.
Since the opposition is actually cheaper, easier to deal with, and by comparison is actively making sellers welcome as opposed to reviled and discriminated against, sellers actually have something to gain.
The current growth spurt in the oppositions listings is of far more interest than eBay's 'special offer' manipulated defence against falling listings. It represents the beginning of a diaspora of migrating sellers that is unlikely to reverse.
As my name says......gottago........ is my 'fiduciary duty' to my children to escape repression....and it is turning out to be almost as much FUN as eBay used to be 10 years ago.
