eBay's Bill Cobb Opens the Door to Volume Pricing Discounts For Large Sellers
Quote:In answering a question about eBay's long-held "level playing field" philosophy, Bill Cobb opened the door to volume-pricing for large sellers. The needs of eBay's largest sellers, business sellers, are real, Bill said. "We are looking at things we've never looked at before, but the notion of equal opportunity has to stay with us forever more." Bill said eBay has probably overused the term level playing field...

Bill Cobb said he had talked to eBay founder Pierre Omidyar, and that Pierre said he never intended for the term level playing field to indicate the site would never offer volume discounts...

The only volume discount that would entice me to sell on eBay would be an Amazon style monthly subscription plan.  Smile
"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
