EbaY Exposed! The Return of Lorrie Norrington & Shoes

Here we sarcastically look again at Ms Lorrie Norrington's apparent lack of professional ethics and personal disregard for the very policies she creates and oversees.

We also visit her feedback page, and the feedback pages at Toolhaus, where we see another problem with the recent changes, that being that they are deceptive by the way they only go back 12 months, thus not allowing trading partners to view all the facts and figures. (IMO)

This was done at the request of a viewer. I apologize for the crude nature of the video, but it was done impromptu, without time to prepare any elaborations.

The item we focus on this time is:
Etienne Aigner Women's Shoes Size 6.5 Never Worn
Item number: 110258591242

Listing and payment details:
Starting time:
Jun-01-08 18:54:46 PDT
Starting bid: US
$0.99

Description Text:
"New Women's Size 6.5
Brown Etienne Aigner Pumps. They have never been worn...see picture 3 they're in perfect condition. I hurt my back and cannot wear heels so they're yours for a great deal.
Happy to take returns if you are not satisfied."

"On occasion, members may find themselves trading with or reading content from an eBay member who is also an employee of an eBay company. When participating on eBay company Web sites (for example, eBay, Half.com, etc.), eBay employees must follow certain rules. Please note that eBay Inc., its subsidiaries, affiliates and joint ventures, do not sponsor or endorse employees' buying or selling through the eBay company Web sites. Further, eBay employees publishing Community content (reviews, guides, blog entries, articles, and product descriptions) as members are speaking for themselves and not on behalf of eBay Inc., its subsidiaries, affiliates and joint ventures.

Violations of this policy by eBay employees may result in a range of actions, including:

*Listing cancellation
*Limits on account privileges
*Account suspension
*Forfeit of eBay fees on canceled listings
*Loss of PowerSeller status

--------------------

You will also note this listing was being flogged as for a charity. I would be very curious to learn what percentage the named charity actually ended up receiving when all was said & done?
Ebay's charity service, Mission Fish,has been questioned numerous times, from my recollection.

The contents of this video fall under fair rights use. The creator of this video has no commercial or financial motivations.
Further, materials used herein are integral to the parody element of the video, as I expose the hypocrisy shown by Lorrie Norrington to the ebay 'community' at large in bitter parody.
There is and has an obvious claim to the transformative value.
This is an expressive work, it provides social benefit, by shedding light on an earlier work, and, in the process, creates a totally new one.

Was just trying to send you a PM, hence the invite.

Don't see any video, but accepted friend request.

Thanks for watching & inviting.

Great vid Capp. The hypocrisy is an outrage... and mark my words, when Donahoe is ejected, they'll put this no-good exec in charge of the site.

Hello stackoutawinner.

Shame, isn't it? What can we say? Who really wants to follow that example of leadership? Either one of them? People still using the site are as morally bankrupt as they are I suppose?

Thanks for watching & commenting.

Boycott ebaY and PayPal!

kind of reminds me of what bottom feeders ebay was after 9/11,atempting to force all chairty auctions to be paid through billpoint.another greedy move on sleezebays part,that should have proved to the world right then and there what they are.I have been thinking as to why the shoes hurt "Lorrie's" feet,maybe because she has cloven hooves...........

[gmajorspresents]

A whole 6 bucks donated to charity. She is way too kind.

[glassofpink]

hooves... HA HA HA

[gmajorspresents]

Capp,

Notice ebay is doing this cancer promotion. Their just waiting for Paul Newman to die.

Some moron already sold a book calling him the late Paul Newman. ebay cares so much.

By the way I did notice the 3.5 million WIN

for consumers against PP. Your site is very informative.

It's just hysterical that the experts in May said ebay stock was a good buy. The stocks are under $25.00. I just bet they go down to $18.00 by Christmas.

GOOD BYE

There's even a feedback left for her that says "Thanks Lorrie".

Why is she allowed to get away with this, not saying she is an ebay employee?
