Innovate or Die: eBay at a Crossroads

"Instead of all these ridiculous "Disruptive Innovations", eBay should have put it's full weight into stopping scams."


Wouldn't it be refreshing if ebay actually caught someone without users making numerous complaints before action is taken or the police enter the picture. They have never been pro-active about scams on either side of the transaction. Either way they get their cut.

""For every seller who goes out of business, there's 10 to fill the void," says Scot Wingo, CEO of ChannelAdvisor, whose selling services Smythe used. "Where there's demand, supply will find it." "

Their sell through rate is under 3%, what a joke. They obviously arent paying listing fee's.

If the report shows these estimates are correct I'd still only believe it if the numbers were broken apart between ebay and paypal.
