Was looking some things up on eBay and I noticed a banner ad for Constant Contact in the left hand column (the blue banner ad).

Ummm....

I realize eBay is jamming all kinds of paid advertising into their site--but, with all of their attempts to stifle communication between buyer and seller, it seems wacky that they would allow Constant Contact to advertise on there.

Hmmm.........that is odd. :blinkie:

I'm sure it's just a symptom of their "show me the money" advertising--it's just ironic that they seem to be pulling away from allowing sellers to even contact buyers without using eBay--yet they advertise an off-eBay newsletter service. LMAO.

Seems perfectly normal.  PayPal is a Constant Contact Global Partner and Constant Contact is also integrated into ProStores:
