I've posted before - at tedious length - about my fascination with eBay and its utterly confounding mixture of greed and inclination towards self-sabotage.


Yes it is fascinating. I'm not just here because what they are doing (and not doing) is frustrating me as both a buyer and seller but out of some strange sense of loyalty to ebay where I want them to be successful even though they are a big multinational american company and have too much of a monopoly already that they can and do abuse their users to some extent. They are stock market listed so there's a little bit of ebay that I own via my pension funds. It's a shame to see the company run so foolishly.
