Howdy!

Sorry, but I've lost track of what I've said and where - what will happen?

"I would guess (hope) they have a plan to address most of those issues already". Yes, well, we all hope that there's a plan, but unfortunately, much evidence points to the contrary. A lot of the issues should never have arisen in the first place. It would be unreasonable to expect any company to come up with a scheme that goes 100% smoothly from day one (no amount of testing and sandbox-ing can predict every possible factor, every single permutation, every single outcome, etc.), but eBay really takes the biscuit! It's shutting the stable door long after the horse has bolted, and the most we can hope for now is that it somehow manages to find the horse and put it back. If it's even still alive.

"... the corporate machine is a slow one" - in eBay's case, that is quite the understatement!

I'm sorry if I appear to be coming down hard on your post. It's just that, with everything going on, I'm in a particularly cynical mood right now. I genuinely mean no offence.
