I just love all these pics - They are so TRUTHFUL !

Wish these eBay people respected how eBay had worked so well  for so long BEFORE all these terrible changes which were not really necessary - Why O why do they have to compete with other sites ?

Whatever happened to being UNIQUE and ORIGINAL ?? - what happened to eBay ? - WHY ???

Preferred it way back in the late 1990’s / 2000’s. Very easy to sell, no scammers. I used a local hub to use to get I. The web. Simple times back then.

Totally agree 100%.

So adding BP tomorrow is off they will role it out gradually starting with electronics only and untracked post will get payment within 24 hours if positive feedback left by  buyer. They must be really panicking about thousands of us leaving

The one thing that's for sure about all these changes is that eBay will do just fine out of them. eBay does *nothing* that's not to it's own advantage.

People predicting that the platform will wither and die because the noses of a few private sellers (myself included) have been put out of joint are naive in the extreme.

Well, that remains to be seen. 

Remember it is these 1000's of private sellers who are basically members of the public, they are also BUYERS of big business sellers too... and without them there would be NO SALES AND NO BUSINESS on eBay... so just think about this for a moment...

And guess what - most of them will continue to buy from business sellers as normal. Wishing something doesn't make it so.

eBay will still be here in 5 years, coining it, irrespective of whether you or I are or not.

I am not buying from eBay ... full stop - the business sellers which I regularly buy from I have found on Amazon... much as I dislike Amazon, I will continue to buy from that business seller  on that platform.. I am not giving ebay anymore to profit.
