eBay spokesperson Catherine England said on Friday, "As we roll this out we are, of course, monitoring its impact on the community and are addressing issues as they may arise."
That seems to be eBay's MO anytime they roll out something new. Instead of anticipating possible problems and preventing them, they deal with them as they arise, creating a lot of frustration and wasted time for the sellers.
"It's better to put something out there and see the reaction and fix it on the fly. You could spend six months getting it perfect in the lab or six days in the lab, and we're better off spending six days, putting it out there, getting feedback and then evolving it." Meg Whitman, March 2005

Great plan. If we waste enough of the seller's time with bull shit maybe they won't have enough time to start their own websites and discover that they could actually earn a better living independently of eBay.

But what are they going to do about ALL the buyers who keep
hitting the back button on ebay or who have decided "the hell with this".

Biz has been REAL good too... and I am very happy to see any new exciting
thing ebay puts out.
