eBay Express Progress Report: So Far It SUCKS!
Quote:Now that it's October and eBay Express has been up and running for a few months, including through the important back-to-school season, what's the verdict so far? A boon or a bust? For sellers, has eBay Express lived up to its hype? full article: http://auctionbytes.com/cab/abn/y06/m11/i01/s01 Footnote on eBay's Level Playing Field: the minimum feedback requirement for EE is 98%. adamhersh (a PeSA director) sells on EE but has a 96.5% positive rating, 4,782 negatives and 3,164 mutual withdrawals. Level playing field indeed. : |

The World of eBay Express according to eBay
Part 2 of the article - interview with EE director Lara Bridges:
eBay Wrote:Many sellers we've spoken with as well as those posting to the eBay Express Board say so far they're disappointed in their EE sales. How successful would you say eBay Express' launch has been? Has it met, not met, or exceeded your expectations? full article: http://auctionbytes.com/cab/abn/y06/m11/i02/s01 |

Quote:Nine of out ten of shoppers who have made a purchase on eBay Express said that the experience met or exceeded their expectations. That is because their expectations were so low to begin with. Why don't those Ebay assholes spend more time fixing what is broken and less time coming up with stupid buzzwords like "finding". The word is SEARCH. > |

Re: eBay Express Progress Report: So Far It SUCKS!
This was in the 1st article, Thentavius:
Quote:Adam Hersh of adamhershauctions told us he's only getting about three EE sales a week, even though he has 60,000 live eBay listings, and sells thousands of items a week through several sites. So the answer seems to be, yes, the Ebay Poster Child is on Express. |

Removing my dumb question 'cause I'm a day late and $100 short. LOL. Sometimes I can't see the forest for the trees.

Re: eBay Express Progress Report: So Far It SUCKS!
You do realize I had quoted your original question, don't you? ;D
Pretending it's still there...my reply: Posterboy replaced Brandon "I sold $8 million on eBay and spent $9.5 million doing it" Dupsky as a PeSA director after Sell2All filed Chapter 7 earlier this year. Sell2All had a similarly abysmal feedback record (and then there was that little thing with Sell2All and the Overstock Spamathon Contest when O first opened.)
"Well, Jay was so giddy that someone named Jay was involved with this site we posted our first non-eBay listing in 3 years here at Lunarbid (we tried two items at Yahoo once upon a time, they bombed)" -Marie posting in a LunarBid thread at OTWA in 2005 wins the award for 'most moronic reason ever given for choosing a venue"
"thanks twat u must have nothing better 2 do. do u talk to all your members like that. will not be recomending your site. best way to put it is TULIPTOOLS.COM IS REALLY SHIT. DONT JOIN." -pubescent owner of rinky dink off2auction.com in 2011 |
