Why is the Media Neglecting eBay's StumbleUpon? [view article]
I have to agree-if it's ebay related-I want nothing to do with it. Feb 24 05:32 PMHow Does the Boycott Impact eBay? [view article]
Previse-I'm assuming you only buy and don't sell. I would guess that your opinion would be different if you were.I've been 'dinged' as you call it by buyers that don't pay, that damage merchandise then return it, exchange parts of merchandise then say it's incomplete. You see-just paying isn't the only part of a buyers responsibility.
I am an honest seller. There are a helluva lot of honest sellers & buyers and there are dishonest of both, as well. But now sellers will not know who those 'other' buyers are-it's BUYER feedback that will mean nothing. Honest buyers and dishonest buyers are all lumped together now.
That's why I doubt that I will ever sell on ebay again-being and honest and fair seller won't be enough. Feb 24 01:56 PM
How Does the Boycott Impact eBay? [view article]
"eBay has a fiduciary responsibility to its shareholders to squeeze you for as many dollars of profit as it possibly can"Ebay as any company does, has a fiduciary responsibility to conduct buesiness in a manner that hincreases profits. Since when did that translate into showing a total lack of regard or respect for your customers? How does that show 'fiduciary responsibility'?
When did increasing profits stop being acheived by increasing the number of customers you have or providing them with improved and/or additional product that helps them be more profitable in exchange for fair rate increases?
Wouldn't increasing your bottom line by helping your customers sell more and make more money be another way to go?
Wouldn't making your customers feel that they were valued and being treated fairly by the company they are spending their money with, create loyalty? Doesn't that translate into profits?
When did the methods to grow a company become sucking the life out of your customers, rather than actually growing and improving your business by serving your customers needs?
The words 'just business' is not a synonym for 'no scruples'.
