And MORE from the Grand Ol' "Creative" Marketing strategy of spamming the eBay boards:
http://forums.ebay.com/ db2/thread.jspa?messageID=2009378193&forumID=143&x#2009378193 Edit: Someone should tell Ray that his dopey site has nearly 3,000 references and back links to eBay in the listings. One seller with links may be selling fake "designer" apparel (at least according to the negative feedback). And on another seller's WP payment instructions: "Payment must be made within 5 days of auction closing. Failure to do so will result in a Non-Paying Bidder Alert to eBay." (Bolding mine) BTW: This seller has been a member since 7/2006 and has only 3 FBs including 2 as a BUYER. |

Let the clueless parade begin.
From the eBay boards: "I am so glad to all the hundreds of you that have wrote to me to be able to pass on the name of the other site. Sorry if I did not have time to put a more personal note to you all. I have had HUNDREDS of emails. A couple things I would like to point out as I do not have the time to email this to everyone that has contacted me. The site that I am happy with has had the MOST eBay refugees with nearly eight thousand in one weeks time. This site was also started by a EX-eBay power seller. Some one who will be far more understanding of our needs.Also, you cant really go by what you might have seen at these other sites say a month or two ago. A LOT HAS CHANGED. People are on the move. Also, this has been in the news. Buyers will start looking around. They will find us. I am hoping with the money that the owners of this other site have received recently from all the new members that they will invest it in advertising.

Quote: The site that I am happy with has had the MOST eBay refugees with nearly eight thousand in one weeks time. Pardon Moi? DB, surely they were not referring to Poopland. At the start of business Jan 29th when the official announcement came out about the new Feebay cost structure the membership number was 16630. As of earlier today it has risen to 18160 - an increase of 1,530 in roughly 7 weeks. A far cry from 8,000 in one. Was the claim made via the same source that predicted the Pooper selling force would be 1,000 by the end of this month? What's amusing are the number of new sellers that have already abandoned ship. Looks like AndRay is also watching history repeat itself.
The one thing you can never afford to lose is your temper.

Edit: And the source was a supposed newbee in love (?) on WP. |
