It was even more boring than usual. And I am batting 1000 - once again, they refused to answer my question. Big Grin

Talk about beating a dead horse. Pathetic. Beth had the best summary of eBays "issues".

My DH had a patient who was a psychotherapist. DH asked him what the most common problem he dealt with was. The therapist said it was people having trouble with reality not matching up with what they THINK it should be.

The REALITY is that stores and eBay are toast.

eBay isn't like it was and in fact they are doing everything possible to make it be something different. To spend time building your business there is absurd.

SRG is having a eBay satisfaction poll right now. 81% of the respondants so far are not happy Sad

What aspect of the site do you suppose that will screw up?

Would that be the oh so wonderful email marketing feature where eBay owns the customer list not the seller? Smile

I was reading that stuff a little earlier.
I almost feel asleep in my chair I swear to god.

But then when the e mail marketing blurb came up well..... I was so excited
I got up and went back outside to kill more bushes in my yard.
What a crock of shit. : Smile

Iron and DecorativeDish are DEAD on.

Gee, this is so much more stimulating than chit-chat, bbh.

Not sure my brain cells can handle the overload----maybe dumb it down a little, guys. Happy001

Edited to add:

Never mind. I misunderstood something bbh said. Iamwithstupid

I found the BBL very informative ....... I am pleased to learn that I am an important part of the eBay selling family ....... I love the leader ....... I appreciate that the Pinks took valuable time away from store marketing efforts to effortlessly answer our questions ...... Resistance is futile ....... eBay uber alles!

Oh, man ...... what a flaming load of junk (both that paragraph above, and the entire BBL).

rejoicemusic from BBL Wrote:Many people have also reported getting phone calls for some 3-party service, and then on the end of the call, the caller wants to know if we are selling on website, wants the URL, and the revenues.

How is any of that eBay's business? And how does it "help" eBay improve stores?

Darlene responded to the question with a copy and paste as usual. Laughing7

My thoughts on eBay's surveys are that I'm competing with eBay for the same search engine traffic/buyers. The last thing I'm going to do is give my competitors (eBay and a million and one other websites) any information about my business that they can use to gain a further competitive advantage over me--so eBay, you can take your surveys and shove them. Hope this helps. Smile

Has Chris T ever apologized for lieing to store owners this Spring (and right up to the July fee hike announcement) about plans to increase exposure for Stores listings later in the year? Smile

I haven't read the Barf Bag Lunch yet. I don't think my stomach could handle it right now.

Patrice,
Were you actually quoting someone in this paragraph:
