Drop in E-Commerce Customer Satisfaction Ends Three-Year Climb

As long as greedy eBay charges the most outrageous fees on the planet (even WalMart can beat them), ecommerce will continue to fail.

Sellers cannot compete when they have to elevate prices so high, buyers simply walk away. People have become wiser. They let their fingers and keyboards do the shopping and find the best prices possible.

Only a fool would waste money at eBay when WalMart and other outside sites are cheaper. And since they appear to phasing out the auction format in favor of the "Buy it Now" and diamond powersellers (a.k.a over-seas garbage), there's really no reason to step foot into the crumbling eBay palace.

eBay is a has-been. Amazon kicked the sand in their face again this holiday season and yet the current management continues on this destructive path. They have alientated long time veteran sellers, cheated and BS'ed their way into forcing a PayPal payment only scheme and a failed search engine, ironically named "Best Match" which when used, allows potential buyers to see only what eBay wants them to see.

Not to mention advertisements as far as the eye can see, that does absolutely nothing but bog computers down and diverts potential shoppers to "click here" and leave the eBay site to make their purchases elsewhere - and they wonder where the traffic is going? Is the Pay Per Click worth it?

Even over-bloated pigs have to stop gobbling some time, don't they? I wonder if eBay is the exception? Open your eyes and close your greedy mouth!
