Of course, it's easy for them now to create an exodus of small sellers and only keep it attractive for powersellers, even though they make life difficult for the lowbie powersellers too.
Why do I think it's not going to work? Sooner or later, powersellers will be affected too and they will slowly start to leave, one by one. That's where eBay's bet is wrong. By making it difficult for the smaller sellers, their base of powersellers will slowly but surely shrink and there goes their business. | But then there will be more powersellers that come along to replace those powersellers. Ebay knows no matter what they do they'll always have a steady stream of sellers. Look at how many ppl they've suspended compared to a year ago. Now they're implementing these stupid idea that will get rid of even more sellers! When you're a monopoly you can do whatever you want.
