Updated 03-04-2008 Updated 03-08-2008 Updated 03-10-2008 This is a live screen recording of actual events on the ebay website, with altered vocals. The video portion is uncut with watermarks added, and otherwise unretouched. The vocal audio portion of this video is my opinion, based upon & validated by the facts.
This curious situation has come about on ebay. here is some background and commentary. This is still very fresh. One thing clear, ebay seems to be acting to cover this up right now. This description will be updated with more info soon.
It appears as though ebay has been caught padding the listing counts with lots and lots of fake listings from questionable accounts. Many of the se accounts are showing as "Not a registered user" or NARU. Many of the listings show as not having any detals, and the format of the listings is different Some are showing as disney listings. All sorts of strange things are going on. And of course, the censorship. Captured live here on video. 03-10-2008: Article with comments :May Day Boycott Looming, EBay Revises Impact of 'Bug' http://tinyurl.com/25hbso
03-08-2008: Now finding more PROOF that these padded listings began as early as 02-22-2008 Seller: eBay_Seller_sdc_prod_409455_97 seller list Items 69 still viewable,(although they come back invalid) show as starting on 2-22 screencap: http://tinyurl.com/3dqqf4
Here we see sdc_prod_310426, with 160 items still viewable (although they come back invalid) Note the dates they started show as February 20th http://tinyurl.com/ysa5zp ----------------------

Hello Elcarteroesmi Yes, everyone loves that wonderful Best Match search engine! The one that made EbaY Express what IT is today! roflmao! Good Luck and Best wishes. Thanks for watching & commenting. :)
Hello mack123123123. This is only the tip of the iceberg here. I have a playlist with more related videos from myself & others, you also might want to go see the EventHorizon1984 Blog write up on this scandalous event. Eb was caught dead in the rights lying, covering up, censoring & lying some more. Unbelievable to say the least. I am still slack-jawed in amazement at what happened.
My advice, close eb & PP accounts out & never look back. Using them sends message you support corruption.
thank you for sharing this video. do you know any alternatives to ebay? i started selling sep 08. i didnt know about the strikes, boycotts, etc. i'm upset at ebays fees/ policies but would like to sell things and make some money, its fun. i'm starting to hate ebay :(
Hello nicole4trance. Sorry I never saw this 'til now. I have a playlist of alternative sites, you can see that by clicking my name and then playlists also check places like PowerSellersUnite, pheebay, do web searches for "online auctions" "ebay alternatives" etc Thanks for watching & asking. :)
I used to make good money out of ebay, then they brought in the 30 day buy it now and got rid of the shop format and nothing sells as buyers cant find anything.Now i'm left with shitloads of stock and mounting debts thanks to all the bullshit changes they brought in.
Ebay are criminals.I hope they go out of business.
Buy some stock and SHOW UP at one of their meetings in person WITH THIS AND ASK THE AHOLES!!- it is the STOCK HOLDERS that matter = especially NOW in the wake of all the CEO / Corp corruption going on in the Financial Markets!!
Hello bbbeemz. This is the tip of the iceberg. EventHorizon 1984 blog has extensive post about this event as well; "The eBay Shopping(.)com Affair" There are still 'phantom pages' of listings on eb last time I looked. Also see my other vid "Ebay Exposed! LiveHelp ebay Stock Paypal Comedy Classic" & associated video by thch123. eb LiveHelp states u can buy stock shares w PP, do chargeback if PPS tanks. They could solve entire current finance crisis that way. lmao!
