Situation as it stands now with eBay is, that buyers are abusing sellers ! PERIOD ! Worst, they, buyers they do have protection from eBay.

Who came up at eBay with these cocky and idiotic ideas remain a mystery now however, ebay will soon learn a lesson.

With more and more coming easy e-commerce management tools for www creation, ebay will soon become to be obsolete selling site. There is NO question about. It is not issue if, but when. This when is virtually for many just behind the door …

We are of those who are going to shut down four eBay stores and as far as we know five other companies are preparing the same. eBay will lose in three to six months 27 stores where sales altogether are, over one and half million USD a month.

If you want to take ebay out of business, just go click on all their pay per click ads they post on sites. Do the same to PayPal with their new video ads. It will cost them .50-$1.00 per click. Have a million sellers boycott them that way. Use an anonymous surfer and do it once per day so google can’t fight, not that they would want to. It could cost them 30 million dollars a month. That will put them out of business. Time to fight these big corporations who are taking our tax dollars and then scewing us with their policies.

Hi,I have read so many complaints & whinging about the greed & dishonesty of both paypal & eBay, whilst i agree 100% with these comments, none of it will do any good, they may lose 100,000 members or so but will gain 200.000 registering, they will always gain.
whilst there are so many other small auction sites out there they will have no impact at all, they will gain a few people but nowhere near enough to make a difference.
If you really want to burn eBay & Paypal, then a new strategy has to emerge, i can think of only one way to do that.
first you create a list of all you people ( And there are thousands of you, me included)get their email addresses & log them, you need at least 500.000.
i am absolutely sure their are some very bright people out there that will do this.
Then one or a company of you create a new auction site, much the same as eBay but with none of the rubbish ( no big brother attitude)
you will have an instant 500.000 members all buying & selling on your site, that will in itself attract thousands more to come over, it will have a devastating affect on eBay.
Then create a payment system, again much the same as paypal but without the crap I.E.blatant greed, or just let people pay by any method they want (which is better) its up to you, get together all of you, puts your heads together & do something positive, stop whinging & harping on about ebay & Paypal, CREATE CREATE, for all of us sellers & buyers alike, i would do it if i could but i do not have the brainpower or the ability to create websites, i am just too old now(62) however i implore you SORT IT OUT & make ebay/paypal pay, before you say it, i realize its a big undertaking but it can be done, all you need is the Will to do it.
The first thing to do is gather the email addresses.
Best of luck to all of you.
Brian.

I urge all buyers and sellers on eBay around the world to take a stand against the greed that has set in to eBay’ headquarters.

May 1st 2008 is the next worldwide eBay Strike day, join in and let eBay know now before it’s too late. In 5 years people will be talking about the site that was “eBay”.

eBay! What’s eBay?
Make some NOISE!

How is anyone supposed to make any money off ebay when the fees are outrageous. I am practically selling my goods for a profit of just a few more cents than what I bought them for. SO many fees and when your done with ebay you get to give more money to their partner PayPal. What a scam!! I’m never going back to feebay!

Ebay restricted my account today, due to suspision of shill bidding. I
absolutely did NOT do any shill bidding. So how am I supposed to deal with
this when They don’t contact you first to find out what is going on?? Any
help would be helpful, as Now i’m afraid to bid on anything, and trust me, I
buy a Ton of stuff on ebay, sell alot too, this is a BUMMER!!!!

We are honest good Christians and our son is a MARINE serving our country.
When my husband saw the email he threw up he was so upset.

We sell a lot of horse related stuff to people within 25 miles of us because
the
items are too heavy to ship. We also have a community wifi system which has
caused lots of our friends to be falsely accused also because the internet
address
is the same for everyone.

Why is ebay allowed to make false claims and RUIN OUR LIVES???

Buyers can leave a Feedback rating for sellers (positive, neutral or negative). Likewise, sellers can leave Feedback for a buyer (positive only). Recently we added detailed seller ratings (DSRs) represented by stars in four aspects of a transaction: item as described, communication, shipping time, and shipping and handling charges. These ratings are anonymous-sellers don’t see which buyers rated them. DSRs allow buyers to provide additional information about their purchase experience and sellers can get a more complete picture of their performance.
This unfair playing field is why I and many others no longer sell on FeeBay.
