WPBF 25 - Ebay Boycott

This story was featured on 2/14/08 on the 4 and 5 o'clock newscasts from WPBF channel 25 in West Palm Beach. Ebay is raising fees and removing seller protection which has prompted users like Paula Blake to "protest victoriously" by boycotting the online auction. ERP claims no copyright on this video but posts it simply to further the information as ERP supports the boycott and users like Paula Blake and hopes to get the message across to Ebay management.

You know I am sick and tired of you idiots who take out your frustration on the sellers instead of on ebay! Some sellers have no choice but to keep using ebay b/c of their business needs. Ebay is the problem and if you do scam a seller I hope you get caught and beaten sensless - oh wait you're already sensless!! Grow up people!

Going on strike for a week is pretty pointless. We need to stay on strike until demands are met. Ebay will just wait a week out.The stupid ass CEO prick dont care for non of us,he's a buisness man.We need to stay on strike and hurt him were it will hurt him the most and until he has to do something to keep ebay's market share holders happy. I sasy stay on strike

Why do you feel the need to use foul speech in your posting? Your message can be conveyed much more effectievly with plain english. It's a well known fact that anytime you have someone using foul speech to convey their message - half of the listening audience turns off to it. You should know better granny.

Ebay is now going to make sellers refund buyers even if you clearly state in your auction no refunds. Ebay's new money back policy will drive more sellers out because buyer can now get free stuff. Simply buy something use it then say it doesn't match auction description then get your money back. Some cases buyer will not be required to return item to seller.

use GeeeWhiz for feedbacks, it's totally free and open to any eBay sellers. You can black list any eBay buyer on there!

Great idea. yes we need a another giant out there but someone that looks after buyers and sellers and not tried to scam and take their money. I hope ebay does something with paypal mainly because that company is corrupt.

You know what, I heard from one of the youtube videos that google is going to create an auction site of their own. Since youtube belongs to google. Maybe your wish might come true! YouBid.
