Suggestions for eBay

[mandy]

AuctionByteMe's editor has a few tips for eBay:

Here's what I would like to see eBay do:

    * Fix whatever is leading to seller complaints of a major sales slowdown
    * Dramatically improve customer service for all buyers and sellers
    * Improve basic functionality to make it easy to list, sell, search, bid and buy
    * Eliminate all plans to launch new features
    * Increase seller verification
    * Institute a high minimum feedback requirement for foreign sellers wanting to list on non-domestic sites
    * Clamp down on sellers who offer low prices and inflated shipping charges
    * Retrain every employee so they treat customers and vendors with dignity and respect
    * Bring buyers and sellers together, and get out of the way!

AuctionByteMe seems to be drinking a lot less    these days.

This is the same shit we been telling ebay for years though.

One thing and one thing only WILL get them to listen.
Can anyone guess what that is?

Less money flowing into their piggy bank.

You think they're koolaid kids? I've always thought Dave & Inas reporting has been fairly balanced...they report the good, bad and the ugly...

I think Ina slams eBay quite a bit.  But maybe I only read the good articles.  lol

Have to agree with Anita on this. I think Ina does a pretty balanced job of reporting.

Although, I would love to see a headline like this:

        Ebay-Just-A-Venue SUCKS!!

Well I was hanging out there a couple of years ago
and I can tell you.
They sure have turned around quit a bit.
A lot of their older articles have that "positive" ebay spin.

But it seems like I said... A lot less 
drinking going on over there now.
