Another of  eBay's top sellers NASU'd. Patan01 feedback of 152,000.  Another DVD seller.

Not to be mean, but...anyone who is selling media items and relying on eBay for the majority of their sales in 2006 is a maroon because the combination of below wholesale average selling prices and margins of a few pennies per item is a good way to commit (business) suicide.

Patan01 joins GlacierBayDVD, totalcampus.com, and several other media sellers who have gone NARU in the past year.
Well at least some of us were smart enough to see the
handwritting on the wall BEFORE ebay killed our online biz.

The whole eggs in one basket thing and all.  :Smile
Second eBay megaseller in past 2 weeks NARU'd:  swedemon feedback 101,335

EDIT--Swedemom is the 8th (that I know of) eBay seller with a FB of over 100,000 to be NARU'd in the past 10 months.
It's seems like it is really snowballing now don't it?

A lot of the volume sellers margins are too small to withstand any significant slow period/downturn in sales.
