  • eBay's Ticker Might Be 'PYPL' in Three Years [View article]
    I agree that EBAY's brilliant management should change the companies ticker symbol----to SHITHEADS.

  • What Can eBay Do to Close Its Amazon Gap? [View article]
    What should eBay do?

    Sell off its various divisions/properties, give the money to shareholders, turn out the lights & leave the building(s).

  • Ten Stocks to Hold Long-Term - Barron's [View article]
    Egg,

    Those "few bashers" at $50 had something didn't they?

    "cuz if those problems get fixed, then zoom zoom zoom."

    The operative word here is "IF", as in, "IF pigs could fly they'd be birds" or "IF I had balls I'd be King, said the Queen."

    Ebay has come to suck, & there is NO indication that they have learned lesson 1.

  • eBay Listens to Customers, Retires Old Search Engine [View article]
    Don't bust a gut on Ebay.

    Speaking as Ebay "noise" I like bonanzle.com, but there are lots of e-sites out there & we all know that ANY of them beat the pucky of of the NEW & IMPROVED EBAY.

  • Suggestions for eBay 2.0 [View article]
    Ebay is doomed & it is a waste of electrons to try to suggest ways to save it. Ebay & its wacko executives know-all & are all-powerful--just ask them.

    Go Bonanzle.com & you'll never go back.

  • Amazon vs. eBay: Follow Up Q&A [View article]
    "To be fair, Amazon doesn't either, but I don't know many people with multiple amazon IDs, and most eBayers have at least 2."

    For everybody's information, Amazon DOES NOT ALLOW more than (1) account unless you get their permission beforehand. Permission is rarely granted & the penalty for ignoring the rule is PERMANENT suspension from Amazon.

    Go to Amazon boards & you will see threads regarding suspended accounts, they don't fool around with mere threats!

    Ebay on the other hand doesn't care, probably because they then double, triple, quadruple, etc count their figures to make them look more impressive. Like the old saw "figures lie & liars figures."

  • eBay: First Quarter Looks Rocky [View article]
    "Despite all the abuse eBay takes as a business, it’s an operation that throws off a lot of cash. In 2008, eBay had free cash flow of $2.3 billion. You could do much worse than $2.3 billion in cash flow."

    Yeah you could do much worse than 2.3 billion in cash flow---and wait a short while & eBay WILL do MUCH WORSE.

    "Yahoo would crush Ebay if they brought back their auction site"

    So would Amazon.com

  • eBay: Triple Whammy Weighs on Stock Price [View article]
    I've also sold at FeeBay for 10+ years. Company now sucks for sellers, but as always they will say to any criticism, "WE ARE ALWAYS RIGHT." Feebay is hopeless, began to get that way on IPO & has accelerated with every IMPROVEMENT since!

    I would recommend a try of Bonanzle.com--has the feel & simplicity for BOTH buyers & sellers of the original FeeBay BEFORE the improvements.
