		<description>What I can't understand is why a company would take something that was working so well and totally screw it up. Their "innovation" talk was just a smoke sreen for their greed. They are paying the price for it now. Too many people are leaving them, and after the way Ebay has treated us sellers like we are trash and so disrespectively, I know most pf us will never return no matter what. They forget that sellers are buyers also, and deserve what they have coming to them.</description>

		<description>Hello: I have been an E-bay seller since August 2000 and I am just about fed up with E-bay and Paypal. They seem to be the only ones making money on this site and it all comes from me the seller. The fees are ridiculous and there are so many different extras fees that it makes you sick. The buyer sits back with their feet up while the one doing all the work (THE SELLER) pays pays pays..... There was an inccident that I had recently that was almost a crime in my view. I sent out a group of 4 lps to a winning bidder in Europe. The winner did not want to pay for AIRMAIL and requested SURFACE MAIL. I stated that I preferred to ship Airmail for quicker safer delivery because of less travel time and less time for any damage to occur. I shipped out the LP's surface mail and contacted buyer to let him know they are on the way and that they would take 4 to 6 weeks to arrive. After 3 weeks in the system, I received an e-mail from the LP's winner wondering why his items have not arrived yet. I explained to him again that it would take a little longer than 3 weeks to arrive. Just shortly after sending him that mail, I received a notice from PAYPAL that they were withdrawing his payment from my Paypal account and holding it until he receives item. The buy who pays nothing to E-bay or Paypal gets his ass kissed while the seller gets a slap in the face. E-bay is alive and still running because of the SELLERS and they are contantly being controlled, disrespected and abused. Its no wonder that E-bay is failing and will soon Fall.</description>

		<description>have owned this phone for 5 months. I would not swap it for any other phone on the market. I hope it lasts forever. My purpose for having a cell phone is to make phone calls, period. It does that job the way I want it to - easily, quickly and with great sound quality. I can afford any cell phone available and I wouldn't swap this phone for the ones that cost several times the price. It is simply the best looking, classiest one out there.

Good selection, fairly priced, I really like the discount offers and free shipping.Recommend; easy transaction; great timberland boots.Top of the http://www.timberlandsite.com line service!</description>

		<description>Why is this news? We told them a year ago what was going to happen. They ignored us. Now what we said would happen, has happened. They're finally starting to notice.

eBay still sucks, and Donahoe still needs to be fired.

Still boycotting victoriously!</description>

		<description>I find that I was a huge ebay user up until 1.5 years ago. Why did I stop? I stopped because of the bait a switch that the vast majority of pro sellers do with shipping. The price of shipping is for the most part outrageously high. The sellers bait you with the low price and knowing that a lot of people don't weed through the detailed costs then hammer you with a price of shipping that quite often rivals the item price.

I have switched to craigslist.org for two reasons, better user experience and no shipping fees. If ebay can pressure its power sellers to stop gouging on the cost of shipping I believe that people might start buying again. Although that is tough because once a site looses its users it is next to impossible to get them back.</description>

		<description>eBay forcuses neither on the buyer nor the seller. The Best Match makes a lot of sellers echausted. Meanwhile, the buyers aren't benifited from the BM much. We use free P&#38;P, so the final price rise. We use featured plus, featured first or other listing promotion to make our listing outstanding. Look, eBay is the winner. It succeeds in charging more fees from seller. But this definitely is a short-sight action.</description>

		<description>eBay needs to undo the last 4 years worth of useless strategies and changes, and to guarantee that it will adhere to the major ambition of being the number 1 auction site in the world for the next 50 years. Let them do again what they did best and let others do what they do best also. Anyone with an ounce of common sense could see their strategies were just plain stupid.</description>
