Interview with Abba Horwitz, Old School Partners

Syneron (ELOS) outshined it's peers??????????? Better take a look at the clear industry leader Cynosure (CYNO)

Screaming Value at Syneron Medical

I notice you cite CYNO in your article. Better growth rate and prospects plus a US company. Unfortunate that ELOS is hdqt. in Israel. Major factor in their discounted stock price, and unlikely it will change soon.

eBay's Looming Identity Crisis

Possibly in your part of the country, but not what I've been seeing. Noticeable drop off in garage sales, and understandably when folks realize they need to fork out $30-$40 up front for a newspaper ad and betting on whether or not it will rain or their sales of 25 cent items will cover it. I see folks at garage sales looking for items they can turn for a profit on eBay. Digital cams and scanners have made eBay listings very quick and easy. Craigslist and Kijiji are booming also. Folks aren't willing to drive very far for sales. We'll see once the recession fully hits.

eBay's Looming Identity Crisis

Don't go writing off eBay just yet. It's still all there and still has the best of both worlds. I've personally never had a problem searching and finding what I want on eBay. The problems and dissent has been coming from the new mass sellers trying to squeeze out a living selling on eBay like the pioneers did. They want it without any work or cost. Too many buyers were used to getting a super deal, but they want it without doing any research or putting any time into it. Also, there's a heck of a lot more buyers watching now, so more competition. To those, I suggest going to Amazon or Overstock and pay a little more or simply search for "Buy it Now" on eBay. The problem with most of those is they are mostly new items, and that's fine for those looking for that. From what I see, eBay's auction model is alive and well. If you can accuse them of anything, it's giving folks too many options, trying to please everyone, and that's what confuses new buyers and sellers. In this recession, folks are going to be cleaning out their basements and garages and putting it on eBay. Believe me, it's a heck of a lot easier and more profitable than putting on a garage sale.
