Anyone else fedup of working FOR ebay?
 

Who else has had enough BS from ebay? I can't say enough bad words about them.. :rolleyes:

Anyone who sells on ebay doesn't work for themselves, they work FOR ebay. They bend over and take it up the **** daily, i for one have had enough.

They're an absolute disgrace of a company. How much longer do you think they'll be around for? I can't wait for the day when i see them fail.

Every week they introduce more and more crappy measure, in an attempt to make sellers lifes difficult. The no negative feedback rule! The have to accept paypal rule! The 21 day hold rule! All these stupid chargeback rules. Seller protection i hear them say.. WHAT SELLER PROTECTION?!

I laugh at the little adverts plastered all over ebay ''your FULLY protected with paypal''. This couldn't be further from the truth for buyer or seller! They brainwash buyers into paying with paypal, and force sellers to accept it.. charging double fees in effect!

How can they get away with running such a monopoly? They should be investigated by the competition comission and OFT. The disgrace that is ebay is getting worse and worse, there comes a point when one thinks about packing it in. Who else is fedup with all the hassle?

A lot of people agree with you and more and more are moving away from eBay and shopping somewhere else. If you haven't already, setup your own website to sale your goods. Don't rely on eBay full time or else you will lose in the long run.

Spend about 2-3k, create your own website. Learn SEOSEM or hire someone to teach you. I think you will find every day it will be easier to sell from your website if you have a good product and a good price, and are willing to spend the money advertising. Ebay will push out all the sellers eventually for corporate america. Its just easier for them and they have to keep squeezing the margins out of the private sellers until they are all gone. Hey..its business. Then a new website will pop up and start all over again!

It's getting more and more frustrating to use ebay

create your own website like others have said. Use ebay as an outlet to advertise your website as well!!

Vent my friend, you're not alone, what ebay is doing will eventually come back to haunt them.. they are already hurting.
