  • I'm a buyer and I'm so upset that Ebay holds money for 21 days unless buyer leaves a feedback. I have busy schedule and not always can make time to access my account. Most of the time I'm happy with my purchase and feel bad that seller has to wait so long to get the money.

    Have no idea why these companies with such successful start, end up committing suicide!!!

    You can't have trading site by pleasing buyers only, you got to please them both - seller and a buyer! Otherwise buzzmart it is!

  • i have sold on ebay for years with no problems until the last couple years. people "claiming" not to get their items, or even better yet DEMANDING there money back without sending the item back! are you kidding me?!! i had a women write me an email saying she never got the item even though i had a tracking number that said different. she said well unless you want me to leave neg feedback i suggest you refund my money. i did refund and guess what..she still left neg! and had my item! what BS!

  • DID THIS WORK?

  • Moral to the story The ebay sellers have Zero rights and get taken advantage of buy the buyers and ebay is ok with it. You cant even leave them negative feedback. NEVER SELL ANYTHING ON EBAY THAT HAS ANY REAL VALUE. or you will get screwed over

  • I had a buyer buy a expensive expresso machine from me and break a couple of the parts after they had it for 5 days. I had all kinds of proof that i sent it in perfect condition including a video of me packing the item in perfect condition just in case the item was damaged in shipping or the buyer tryed to pull on over on me. WELL the seller 5days after recieving it toled ebay it didnt work. Ebay didnt even want to see me video. They just took the money out of my acount and gave it to the buyer.

  • Ebay use to be a safe place for sellers and buyers. But now its only safe for the buyers. ALL they have to do is say the item was not what they expected they have over 7 days to play with it before they have to contact you about not wanting it, and you have to take it back even if its exactly how you described. AND you dont get the shipping it cost you to send it to them back so you are out the shipping. HOW DO THAT MAKE SENSE. Even if the seller dos everything right you still get screwed over.

  • Go to walybi.com

    It is a new auction with Free listings and only 3% final sale fees

  • EBAY SUX ASS....I HAD TWO PEOPLE COMPLAIN ABOUT SHIPPING TIME....ALL OTHER FEEDBACK WAS 100% AND THEY BANNED ME FROM SELLING...BUT OH YEAH I CAN STILL BUY THINGS.....FU...DON'T THINK SO.....

  • @ufd23 You are lying. Be honest with yourself and others.

  • @grabes1980 Why would I lie about bs like that? I tried to open another account they froze that one also..called to work things out they said no you will never be able to sell on ebay again..so I tried doing it through my brother and they said same last name and same products...froze that account...they are A holes..they could care less about the seller...I only sold a few items computer items.... here and there..not making much money and doing for fun....they suck....cock.....

  • @grabes1980 Also i ended up bidding on things.....on the three accounts..cause of course i could still buy...so i bid on shit and never paid so they had to deal with it.....fuk a me? no Fuk a YOU EBAY

  • @ufd23 "Born in East LA"?! Love it!

  • @grabes1980 So now I just open account and bid on shit and don't pay.......sour taste they left they did....

  • We need to boycott ebay again and again and again and again! We need to get organized!!!

  • ive moved my buying and selling activity to buzzmart.com ebay fees are way to high and it is nearly not as much fun either.

  • Consider the antics and business practices of eBay when you go to the polls Nov. 2, 2010. Meg Whitman is the epitome of the republican party.

  • REALLY, REALLY NEED TO DO THIS AGAIN!!!! SOON!!!

  • I used to like Ebay now it sucks. AMAZON is now the best!

  • been avoiding ebay like a plague for years now, it just keeps getting more ridiculous for sellers

  • did this strike get their attention at all? DID IT WORK?

  • I filed a complaint with the attorney general of michigan and they replied that there wasnt enough "evidence" to go forward with my complaint, what? The U.S. is the only place where Ebay, a thrird party site can force a seller to use Paypal...They say it helps prevent fraud, yet when I asked them specifically about how much fraud occurs on the site...they had "no information to provide me"...I feel like the guy in the 1984 book...2 plus 2 doesnt make three Ebay...goodbye to good deals on ebay.

  • I love how in the U.S. Ebay forces its sellers to use Paypal for payment. Of course they now own Paypal and get yet another cut of the sellers money. However, in Austrailia, where they tries to pull the same B.S. Austrailia bitch smacked them and said that it was illegal for a third party site to make their sellers use an online payment service. They get away with murder here....Ebay sucks..as a long time seller, I sincerely hope Google gets an auction site up and coming soon.

  • FUCK EBAY FUCK FUCK FUCK!!!

  • i was wondering why i never see good deals on ebay no more.. never knew this was happening. i dont really buy there any more, cus is expensive, and everything is buy now, unlike the old days when u bid for stuff and get good deals. we should all strike ebay more often!! let me know iam ready to pass on the word to my LATINOS..

  • ebay is shit!

  • is it true that if u dont sell stff on ebay u get a bill form ebay

  • What is all this about? LOL! Check out our webshow.. Err.. whats eBay?

  • Pay pal holds money for 21 days ..unless theres feedback from the buyer, also UPS can speed the payment when delivering the product, i understand the buyer has an amount of time to complain if not the payment goes right thru.

    when youre beggining in ebay its not easy.

    but it works.

  • ebay is still going strong this video was stupid music like an ephinany obviously the boycott did nothing. I hate e bayes listing fees they should only be applied if the item sells FEEBAY!!!!!!!

  • i hate ebay...their idiots and dont return any concerns on their errors or help in any general way. craigslist is isnt the best but it beats ebay any day!

  • Ebay is too expensive. Their transaction fee per sale on the buy it now option is 4.9%, plus you have to pay a listing fee. Also, when you sale a product for sale, people can just add it to the watch list, and then wait for someone else to sale and advertise the same product.

  • I would like to make a system that does not scam its users. Please help me.

    I am living in Australia.

  • this is what i like to hear, i am glad my scamming has contributed to this

  • Ebay supported Mit Romney for president during this same 2008 period too! that was why I boycotted.

    ebay uses its paypal to extract more money from your sales. They send all your fees through paypal so the transaction amount is higher leading to a higher percentage taken from your sale only to come back a month later and get their fees. it is robbery.

  • I made my living on eBay for years under Meg Whitmen. I absolutely loved it! As a matter of fact, the only shopping I did offline was at the grocery store.

    To keep a long story short, I got back on eBay a couple of months ago, and was totally dismayed at all of the simply ignorant changes they made. I could tell that a lot of other ppl were pissed too, because I couldn't even find something as simple as tube socks are polyester pants. eBay is a thing of the past.

  • I rarely use ebay because I heard storys about it and the fees to sell items is insane, I still like amazon better I do not think they have selling fees ( never sold on there )

  • Lol, you spelled blatantly wrong in the same sentence as intelligence.

  • Forgot what I was gonna say LOL. Um... when you strike, you do it til things change. Not for one week.You dont announce an end date. Whoever made this video must never have been in a union or went on strike. I bet the people at ebay laughed their hineys off at the thought of a one week strike.

    oh but then again ebay is scabs only. LOL

  • Never used ebay cuz frankly it's full of riff-raff & scams. But I read they cleaned it up so I thought I'd look there for something I wanted. It locked up my puter, drove CPU usage to 100% & stayed there. Page never even came up. Had to manually shut down browser. I doubt anyone needs to boycott it. It doesn't even work. It will just eat your CPU. I think it must be full of spyware & virus. I stick to real stores where I know I won't get ripped. Saving a nickle or dime isnt worth it. LOL.

  • Amazon is allot better anyway!

  • YEAH DEATH TO EBAY REBORN TO AMAZONE!! just go see the negative threads of the items on ebay before comment me

  • selling all my collectables through eBid and selling video games through Amazon after the way i've been treated by this faceless company.

    with eBid you can even contact the people who run the company to pass ideas by them

  • ebay will hopefully go away one day, it is scum, it used to be good at the beginning but know its turned to shit and ebay is becoming theifs themselves, double dipping with fees, don't give a shit about customers etc etc.

  • Alternative venues to sell will evolve soon enuf, remember where you heard it. The worlds largest "fence" (seller of stolen goods) will start losing money and hopefully Paypal in light of BIG bank failures will be regulated. Write your congressman and make them aware. I sell no more now. Too many charges and the feedback change has sellers running from scamsters. Too bad they became greedy and offensive to their customers. They'll NEVER get another penny from me.

  • Im looking for 4 or 5 good ebay sellers, who have existing rangers, that dont change very often. Martial arts pads would never need to change, whereas football programs would change every week.

    Uk or USA. As long as youve got good products and cheap enough, you can avaoid ebay fees altogether, and just pay me a weekly fee for the site, based on how many sales or hits it gets.

    You will sell less than ebay, but no crippling fees. If it dont sell, i wont charge anything.

  • im a web designer and rent eshops.

    If anyone has a good range of products (new only), perhaps ebay sellers, and you want to have your own website to sellonbut cant afford it, i might be able to help.

    I will just charge AFTER it starts making money. Then you dont pay any ebay fees, just a monthly rental to me. Im looking for ink cartridges, and other stuff, but you must already be selling on ebay or somewhere, so we can understand each other. I will want money, but not like ebay.

    cheers,

    mike

  • Buy&Sell your stuff at: iOFFER

  • EBAY SUCKS (PERIOD).

  • shit I did not know of this strike otherwise I would have joined...

  • ranker2xyz your a prick if you people dont like ebay then dont use it, but dont give innocent sellers negative feedback for no reason.

  • thanks i think kazookz com is great everyone should bring there stuff from ebay to kazookz no fees at all. tell everyone togo their thanks.

  • The truth is,E BAY mostly survived on counterfeit goods sales on it`s "fleamarket" site.Since they have been removed by the authorities, ebay has decided to screw every remaining trader to pump up it`s profits, i was a Power seller and have now left ebay, as i found i was working for THEM, not for myself, paying xtortionate fees with only scam customers frequenting ebay nowdays.

  • a website like ebay is Kazookz com

    its free no fees sell as much as youd like.and get a free store

  • Ebay has become a joke. For me selling a DVD here in the UK - A Listing Fee charge. 10% Final Value Fee charge. PayPal, 20p surcharge PLUS 3%. And NOW in the UK Ebay now insist DVD sellers have to list FREE postage. So you now have to include postage in the Start Cost - Doesn't look like such a bargain now. Guy won a DVD from me last last month. Never paid. Told me he wasn't paying and that "shit happens, now fuck off". Ebays response? NOTHING. And I CAN'T leave negative anymore WTF!?

  • This video makes me want to go do some bidding.

  • This video was just beautiful. God bless america and God bless Ebay!

  • 10% for eBay UK and Ireland private sellers. Thanks eBay...hope more sellers quit like I did last year :p

  • lol thats great their fee's are going up to 8% shortly

  • not only has the ebay fee's gotten out of hand but now the no negetive feedback

    and on top of all that the buyer has almost all the power when the seller should have some ebay has gone down the toilet

    and as a buyer it seems like ebay used to be really cheap know as days go buy everything that used to be a dollar is know $1.20 cents and it adds up i am doen forever

  • Hey guys.

    If you want to damage Ebay, stop using Paypal. That's how you get them!

  • Fuck ebay and it's momma.

  • I am also fed up with ebay also. I have been listing with them for over 11 years. It time to start a new company like theirs If you have any comments or ideas let me know. Lets see if we can start a new company like ebay use to be. Larry Graves

  • ʎɐqǝ uo pɹɐoqʎǝʞ ɐ ʎnq oʇ ƃuıoƃ ɯɐ ı ǝɯıʇ ʇsɐן ǝɥʇ sı sıɥʇ

  • HAHA!

  • Ebay is the only game in town ! All the other sites suck.

  • It is not even REMOTELY fair for an eBay seller to not have the right to give negative feedback to a buyer that doesnt pay. As a seller, I'd look to see if buyers had "no payments" on their feedback so I'd know if I should cancel their bid or not. After eBay implemented that rule, I cancelled my account even though I had 478 feedback left with no negatives and 2 neutrals. I will NOT buy OR sell on eBay ever again.

  • Whats sad about Ebay's business practices is as they continue to squeeze the smaller sellers out of business, teh diversity and quality of the products on ebay continues to spiral downwards. Now, its basically a storefront for newer items. There are a few vintage seller holdouts but there days are numbered. I have a ebay and Bonanzle store and I hope Bonanzle takes off a lil more..so I can quite ebay completely.

  • i had sold for over 10 yrs ...the fees were killing me but then when they said no more money orders or checks...that was it...and i was being forced to use paypal ..also the fact that i cant give neg fb if some one messes with me ...dictatorship at its worse ...ebay in the beginning was so much fun and it helped me pay bills and get rid of stuff...now its just depressing ...i dont get why this new guy wants to wreck ebay but its working ...

  • We are sick of ebay and the way they are treating the sellers.A seller cant leave a well deserved negative for buyer but a buyer can leave one for a seller? WTF! Looks like discrimination to me! The paypal thing that being shoved down everybodys throat loooks like a monopoly violating the "Anti Trust Law"

    A seller should have a choice of how they want to be paid...this DSR rating is also BS,where can a seller rate a buyer? They cant,DISCRIMINATION!! and the sellers are providing sales for all!

  • That is exactly right, i was selling laptop spare parts on ebay until couple of days ago. there is what was happening. i have sent for example laptop motherboard worth $250 to buyer, after some time he send me his broken, saying that mine doesnt work and opened claim with paypal. Everybody knows the end i think. He got my working part and money as well and the worst of it gives me negative feedback which i cant fight back. And the keeping bidder private think is just for scammers to bid on own

  • no, ebay is just fucked up period.ebays a piece of work. well first of all its there fees.i just bought somehting for $140 and the selling and listing fee was $12 for the seller(i found out through a diff website) ebays fees are just jacked up  and expensive, liek how are you going to get $50 out of somethign wehn you have to take moeny out for shipping selling fees, listing fees, and dont foroget the paypal fee! its justcrazy.

  • I HATE FUKCING EBAY NEVER USING AGIAN

  • I bought and sold on ebay since 1989. It seemed every year it got worse. The fees kept going up, they kept adding more and more nickel and dime fees for this and that. They bought out Paypal, and double dipped you again with more fees. I stopped selling over a year ago. I let my credit card expire too. I won't ever sell on there again, and it's very rare I even buy on there anymore.

  • Ebay's sucking holiday doorbuster scam and poor treatment aren't winning it money or the love of stock ratings firms....

    10-Dec-08 Stifel Nicolaus Downgrade's Ebay from Buy to Hold

    28-Nov-08 ArgusDowngrade's Ebay from Buy to Hold

    December 4th - Ebay pwns my seller account with a 3 day suspension that got extended to indefinite for questioning the madness.

    Soo.... Perhaps most importantly,

    On December 12th I Downgrade Ebay from Poop to Flush

  • WE WILL KILL eBAY USING THEIR OWN RULES.....EVERYONE, THERE IS AN EASY SOLUTION TO DSR's, BUY A LOW PRICE ITEM FROM ALL POWERSELLERS ON EBAY AND THEN GIVE THEM 1 STAR ACCROSS ALL ITEMS and a NEG, then EACH AND EVERY POWERSELLER WILL BE KICKED OFF eBAY and eBay will make NO PROFITS and GO OUT OF BUSINESS. We can TAKE DOWN 1 POWERSELLER A WEEK, every WEEK !

  • it won't work, ranker, they won't allow negative feedback

  • You can NEG a Seller, even a Power Seller. I just had a legitimate bad experience with one and NGD them yesterday.

    eBay has went to 'hell' in a hand basket. It used to be the best place going for antiquities, now it is a lot of junk and yard sale crap BUT where else is there, anyone care to share? I mean places where one can look for high end bargains and not be 'ripped'.

    Peace~

    Mistress Reba

  • well, how? it says you can only leave positive feedback, and i think that's bull

  • and did you hear about the petition to remove the CEO of ebay from position?

  • calm down kids

  • Ebay is nothin but a scam unless you are a buyer,lets sauy you list a car up for sale for about 20gs well they will charcge u atleast about a g to list it or more and if it don't sell you still have to pay the fee,ebay is owned by hackers don't be blinded and open your eyes

  • its ebay and the post office fees thats making it worthless to use ebay. i just sold something for 0.99 and my ebay fees were $3.25. Its cheaper to just throw the stuff away, i just gave ebay 3 bucks for nothing! They also need to comeout with a fairer buyers/bid option, if you see something you want but have to wait to purchase you should be able to have a hold option or fee, instead being told your an irresponsible bidder and get low reviews.

  • my god your a freaken idiot. If you don't have the money to buy it now, don't bid on it and expect the seller to wait for you to get some money. what a freakin moron. how about you shop when you have money like most people. You are part of the problem with our economy now. IDIOT

  • If you didnt have such a rude big mouth with llc next to your name CarLoser, your buisness might do better, telling people to get lost is not good customer service. I've spent $3000 in the past three months on ebay and 99% of the sellers i asked for some patience were so. But ill take your advice by doing the economy a favor and closing my ebay account and keep the rest of my money in my pocket. Did i mention UPS has half the shipping fees than USPS?

  • Just realized something else CarKnucklehead Looking for Loser to Con...you probably sell cars on ebay, so your right, why the hell would anyone bid if they didn't have the money to buy a car. But let me clarify, thats not what i was talking about, i'm talking about $5, $10, $15, $20 bids that sellers cry about after 7 days. That just tells me you go around calling your customers idiots thats what you think they are, cause cause only idiots and suckers buy cars from ebay in the first place.

  • Ebay stocks have fallen down an elevator shaft. 11-19-2008 they are under $12.00

    The Blood is in the water. It's all over Carlos.

  • What pisses me off is the're forcing people to use pay pal. Money order is a dirty word on there. i'm bidding on something atm where the seller states he accepts pp and M O's, but ebay just has PP under payment options, and as "seller preffered". if i win it i'll se what happens.

  • for some buyer ebay is cool because they only have to pay and if they don't want the iem they put a dispute and sometimes some buyer get free stuff from ebay ,ebay si a really trash we need to work all together in my opinion we all have to move to ebid they don't charge you for fees and is more easy .

  • ebay is complete trash they don't have costumer support 24/7 because they can't support millions of people they only care about buyer and that's is example i sold a pair of speakers after a week the guy send me a email to refund money because one tweeter was blown i said no and he easy put me a dispute he won he send me the speakers and i found the tweeter was damaged in purpose just to get the money back bullshit we don't want ebay .

  • Get life

  • FIRE DONAHOE!

    Do an internet search for

    "Ebay Stockholders and Sellers Calling For Immediate Termination of John Donohoe CEO"

    Sign the petition and pass the information on to others!

    Time to turn up the N.O.I.S.E.

  • Ebay has turned their backs on the sellers and as one of them...I'm glad there sliding into oblivion...Im ready for Googles auction service...

  • Hi there, where do you find googles auction service? i wish to sell there as well.

  • WELLS AID AGREE

  • ebay stock @ $14.89. Short them into oblivion!

  • Nice video, can't say the same about Donahoe!

  • E-bay Sellers,Good News. Starting Oct 20th ,some lawyers are taking cases from E-bay sellers.This is the same day E-bay stops taking checks,and money orders,which many view as discrimination,and forcing buyers to use there Paypal.

  • The layoffs at eBay have begun! Go to the USA Today website and search eBay layoffs! eBay has just announced the layoff of approximately 1,600 employees due to declining business. What a damn shame... LOL! Not to mention their stock prices rapidly falling too, from $58 back in 2004 down to $17.00 a share today! ROT IN HELL GREEDY EBAY BASTARDS!! HA HA HA!!

  • Read the comments too on the USA Today article about the eBay layoffs, the greedy bastards deserve what they have coming to them!

  • just how crazy is JD...check it out...

    google this:

    "eBays Disruptive Innovation, Hows that workin for ya?"

  • new strike, operation ebay blackout, being organized @ strikebay com go visit now!

  • ME: Lets see, I've only got 5 bucks, so, I'll take a big mac, SS fries, and a croak.

    CLERK: You get two free e-bay shares with every SS fries.

    ME: In that case, I'll just have a reg. size fries.

    CLERK:I can super-size the ebay stocks.

    ME:I didn't know e-bay stocks could be SS'd?

    CLERK:Actually they can't, but I'm told to upsell.

    ME:I'll pass on the e-bay stocks, I'd rather eat a cardiac attack big mac and fries with zero food value, than an ebay stock that has no value whatsoever.

  • lol, good one!

  • does anyone actually realize how much a thief ebay is wtf? hech this out:

    item sells for $50

    final value fee-2.75

    paypals cut- another 2.75

    plus the first fuckin listing fee in the frst place. they tak damn near 2/5 of your profit, and if it doesnt sell in most cases they dont give you a listing fee refund

  • i completely agree with rdt1970 they steal from you with no mercy and payal i dont even want to get started with them , as soon as you get paid they take out a chunk and you dont even have choice , the little profit if any you make they take in fees .

  • This is the 1st I've heard of the strike. I've not had time to list so I may have participated w/o even knowing it. My sales have dropped but then again I'm not listing anything new & the few things that I have in my store that are being bought are not being paid for. I've been very disgusted with the fact that a seller can not leave a buyer neg feedback. This is not fair at all. I've never left a neg for someone who didn't deserve it. Usually the neg was posted weeks after the auction ended.

  • Too late - I'm only hearing about it now.

    I've only been a buyer, but I know the terms are unfair to the sellers - although I do not think sellers should be allowed to leave NEG feedback if the buyers have paid promptly. What else do we have to do to get a POS?

    I do know it's harder for sellers to make a profit - I usually offer to send m.o. so that PayPal won't take such a bite.

    This should have been more promoted - I would have joined in ...

  • Somebody knows any other sites (besides ebay) where I can buy?

    I'm not using ebay never again.

  • Ebay is a monopoly and I hope they have some real competition in the near future.

  • Ebay sucks. Very first purchase I made paid for item and never received. Ebay did nothing, and refused to give me the seller info after he removed it.

  • I would like to be locked in a room with the people who own eby/paypal armed with a baseball bat with rusty nails in it (oh the sheer joy) of smashing complete skulls in, the beautiful sounds of of a shatted limbs as i smash and stomp my way through numerous skeletal forms. The screams for mercy! that will never be answered or heard people im telling you these fucks dont deserve to live they steal from those of us who cant afford the financial loss and those fucks in government are next! :)

  • I joined EBAY in 1999... Now it is a complete piece of shit. I don't sell anymore and if I want to buy something it's "Buy It Now" with posted shipping charges ONLY... Shill bidding killed it for me... Ebay's digusting greed was evident in the fact that they did nothing to stop the shill bidding problem... why would they? Higher priced auctions mean more profits for Ebay... no reason to stop the shill bids... My reason for leaving....

  • ebay was built on commerce,sustained by trust and inspires opportunity

    Their stocks are down $10.00 since May. Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha

    Those communist liars are finaly getting to eat what they cooked.

  • Great Job Maddie Ray!

  • buyers are liars and so is ebay and paypal customer service

  • i didnt know anything about this until now. my takings are down but i put down to people being hard up here in the uk????

    in12monthstime on ebay, come and get yer rods before i fuk off to another selling site lol

  • ebay was ebay till they bought paypal .paypal is fucked up they will lie to you and then fuck you real hard .ask me i know how they work THEY DID IT TO ME 4 TIMES .just wait till oct 08 .they make changes for them self,s EMPLOYES OF EBAY AND PAYPAL ARE SELLING AND BUYING WITCH I THINK IS A CONFLICT OF INTEREST .THEY BEEN FUCKING ME REAL HARD .

  • Does anyone know a good alternative to ebay? It's time for me to sell elsewhere.

  • Well, they just raised the fee's again! I sell video games & systems on ebay, my user name is joei89. My final value fees are increasing from 8.75% to 15% for video games! Last year, it was 5.25%. That's almost a 300% INCREASE in my damn fees! I also liked the fact that a buyer could pay via money order, because I do not get charged a fee from PayPal. THE ASSHOLES REMOVED THE OPTION OF THE BUYER PAYING VIA CHECK OR MONEY ORDER! It's time to look for an ebay alternative, I've had enough.

  • Make a new video about Ebays new changes being effective in October 2008.

  • YOU ALL ARE TOOLS!

  • ebay blows dicks. they are running on fumes now, free sites like craigslist, ebid and oodle are the future.

    it's their own fault, they responded to their fast, lucky success with arrogance and insatiable greed, and now their loyal sellers and buyers are now leaving en masse for greener pastures.

  • I think it is perhaps time to make another video. Ebay is at it again and the new changes suck!

  • I would encourage all Ebay users to file a complaint with your states Attorney General's Office. Ebay has announced that they will no longer allow users to accept checks and money orders..What? This is classic bair and switch. Ebay does not have any buisness telling me what type of payment to accept for my own items. Austrailia fought back, we need to do the same.

  • Checks, money orders and credit cards was always the norm for doing business. ebay is the only place where buyers and sellers are bad and need to be governed by "paypal".

    Ebay is like a whore running around trying to make a liar out of honest people.Creating confusion in a market place where they want to hold the ball with buyers money and sellers merchandise.

    2 words for ebay and paypal: COMMUNIST PIGS

    We don't need the Hanoi Hilton in the White House.

  • Exactly!!! They just went through that in Australia and it was found that Paypal was NOT safe. Each and every day folks get scammed either by Paypal themselves or hackers with hacked PP accounts. All anyone needs to do is look at their own PP forum. No happy campers. The site does not even work for lots and lots of them. It's in shambles.

    The 21 days (while they get interest) is a scam-white collar crime IMO. No way can you run your business that way.

    Leave greedbay and never look back!

  • WOW, I just read the new changes announced today, and it looks like they are at it again. Unreal!

  • The issue is that Ebay is full of scam artiest. Unless Ebay and Paypal start to crack down on these people and go after them in CRIMINAL court, people will have no faith in Ebay/Paypal. Its simple, I may pay a bit more, but not only do I know what I am getting but I also have the protection my credit card company offers. With ebay/paypal its just like buying something off the back of a truck.

  • ill boycott ebay when i can get an ipod at walmart for less than 100$.

  • ebay is illegal in some states

  • yeah

    where i live you can't do ebay or myspace

  • Just curious which states is ebay llegal.

    This is the first time I heard of this.

    At least its moving in the right direction.

  • hahahhaha

    are you retarted

    why would it be llegal

  • In the united states its legal in all 50 states!!!!

  • oops! typo error.

    Should state "illegal" and not "legal"

  • is it possible to sell a video game that is scratched and it wont work then say it's new?

    because im scared that if i buy a game it might not work

  • then if it doesn't work you report it. like open a dispute on the paypal.

  • just file a charge back. most of the time they are true to their word though. I have never had a bad experience on ebay personally

  • While ev3eryone has ben talking abot ebay and their were never any day dulls for trips which by thge way is quite incredible. Ebya ahs been sayng this for a long time, so pdont put up with how is your mum? I have threee strikes fro ebay to look at me in the mirror, but paypal could not where you born in the middle of a computer age or replenish your potato salad! Negative feedback when you are you for the time for revenge and BUY IT NOW lotion espianage. I hope you all know what I mean

  • I so hate ebay. I use to love it back in 2002 when I started, and now I hate it because they had suspended me for life. I hate ebay because they never reinstate you.. bewarned too if sellers give you item strikes. I had way to many when I canceled a lot of ebay items last year in 2007. F**K ebay for suspension me. EBAY IS NOT A CANCELIZATION SITE... not like Walmart, Toys R Us, Collector's Cache, ToyWiz, Target, etc... BEWARE.

  • You were suspended, because you were one of those lowlife scamming worthless sellers! Good riddens to you, hope they never reinstate you!

  • Tried for ages to shorten previous comment, but didn't succeed. Here's the rest of it...

    Unbelievable, got a bill 2day from EB, after the potential loss of 100s of £s over 3 months I hav nt been able 2 use EB. I hope EB crumbles & another site reigns. Any ideas 4 selling elsewhere please let me know!!

  • I as a Buyer with a 100 percent positive feedback and 200 trades, have to say that I am pleased with the new feedback changes. On more then one ocassion I have actually been threatened by sellers with neg feedback for complaining about poor product/service. this change makes the buyer "king" the way it is everywhere else in commerce and should be. Without the buyer, no one eats inclusive of Ebay and their shareholders. I think some sellers have brought this change upon themselves.

  • ugh. I HATE THE NEW FEEDBACK SYSTEM!

  • Of course you hate it, your one of those low life retaliatory sellers, Ebay is getting rid of! Good riddens to you, hopefull soon!

  • It's not so much the buyers, sellers, or even ebay that's messed up - it WAS kewl!

    I think it's the new management that screwed things up. It's not so much whether they are listening to us, they WANT US TO LISTEN TO THEM!

    John Donero is fiddlelin around whilst ebay burns!
