How eBay is working to get more on-time Christmas deliveries and shed
its yard-sale image
eBay used to be a person-to-person forum where both sides felt like
they were dealing with people, not checkout forms. Now they long to
cut out the individual and turn their sellers into the same faceless,
uncaring webform company they are.
It may work as they continue to make life very uncomfortable for
individuals and comfortable for large lot retailers. What will happen,
though, is many honest and hardworking individuals will become victims
to this morphing. Indivuals are not members, they are not part of a
"community." They are a nusiance.
But, much of this was brought by "I'm not responsible" sellers who
ripped off buyers in spades and used one of the former feedback
systems (I forget which one, there are so many) to control.
And, there is no useful usenet group where new sellers can get help
instead of insults. And honest eBay still says they are only a venue.
Whatever.
