If unethical and immoral is the "new" definition of business.
I must be the opposite of business.
Wonder what that word is?  :

And some people choose not to conduct business with this corporate type. I am one of those people and Ebay offends me.

Me too.[quote author=xppman link=topic=4766.msg20889#msg20889 date=1155696835]

Channel Advisor CEO Scott Wingo on the listing promo:

ast night I blogged about the two day "store to core" listing promo.  As the community has digested this one there have been some very ugly details that have come to light:

1. You will be charged the full listing fee and then given a credit in September.  Many sellers point out that eBay hasn't been stellar with billing issues and there's some risk here.

2. (and this is a biggie)  If you are using one of eBay's certified solution providers (CSPs - many call them PSPs still), then these listings will be created OUTSIDE of those systems and have to be dealt with manually.  This can cause all kinds of chaos as inventory counts get out of sync, invoices don't go out, etc.

Bottom line: Think very carefully before taking advantage of this promotion.  While it looks good on the surface, once you start peeling the onion, well, I'll let the metaphor speak for itself.

Update: complaining pays off.  As a result of complaints on its forums, eBay will be issuing credits 1-month sooner.

Update on Credits for Last Week’s Store Inventory to Core $.10 Promotion
storesteam@ebay.com View Listings | Report Aug-21-06 15:04 PDT
Thanks to everyone who participated in the August 15-16 offer to transfer Store Inventory listings to Auction-style and Fixed-Price (core) listings for just 10¢ with free Gallery.

We’ve heard from some sellers who have been concerned about the timing of the credits. Because of this, we’ve asked the billing team to accelerate the processing of these credits. Any applicable credits will post to sellers’ accounts by the end of August, not at the end of September as stated in the promotion details.

Thank you again for your participation. If you have any questions once you receive the updates to your invoice, please feel free to call eBay Stores Customer Support.

Sincerely,

The eBay Stores Team
