Clothes lines on ebay
We sell clothes lines on our own site now because of the fees on ebay. We do much better now and our site ranks number one. Im still using paypal but will be moving to the banks.
Start your own ecommerce site
Instead of boycotting eBay, just start your own ecommerce site...
It's time for E-bay to rest in peace
I don't think E-bay will be lasting for too long . . .

I was looking at the list
I was looking at the list someone added as a comment on here about the websites ebay own - I had no idea that ebay owned part of or the whole of Craigslist. That's crazy I didn't know that!
How rude
I cant beleive ebay just shrugs it off! Shows the contempt for people that they have. Could anybody imagine Ford or McDonalds doing that?
I partnered with the top Ebay competitor!
I quit Ebay! Now Iam out for revenge! Lets stick it to them like the greedy sons of ####### did to us. I now have my own website where I sell Amazon products, that means I make money off other peoples auctions. Plus I can list all the products of my own that I want, (I do not have to list them with Amazon first) I just put them up on my website. I can also put all the affiliate links banners and digital products that I want on MY webpage and get paid for it. I have my own domain name so Iam building my own brand name and customer base. It was a turnkey website setup and ready to go when I started it, but with the online editor you get with it you dont need to know HTML or any programing to add your own products,banners, affiliate links, or digital products. I can change the site to look anyway I want its very easy to do. And I offer my costomers Free online games,news ,weather, sports and more. All for $20 a month. Why pay Ebays fees when you can have all of this and amazon will pay you to sell other peoples poducts along side yours , and you dont have to list anything on amazon if you dont want to? Go to my site Durashopping.com to see an example of this Website. I have modified the site(you will not get one just like it) to look the way I want, you can do the same very easy. If you also want to do this- just click the green banner at the top of the page.

The best way to boycott ebay
The best way to boycott ebay is too open your own shop. Ive opened my own. Ebay isnt really needed by sellers or even buyers. Most people buy from independant sellers online so why wait.
Lets boycott and they will listen!
If we all stop using ebay they will have to listen then wont they!! People power does have a way of getting things done and if we get enough on board sooner or later Ebay will have to sit up and take note. I opened my own online store instead of an ebay store and it goes great guns, plus has little fees compared to ebay...wake up ebay and listen to your sellers!!!

If there is going to be
If there is going to be another boycott can someone please email me? I would definitely like to be part of it.
I opened my own webstore
Ebay stopped taking the small seller serious and gave all the trust to the buyer, in such a way that now i cannot tell other sellers that some buyers hold you to ransom for full refunds or even worse....get to keep the goods and a refund in return for positive feedback. Ebay dont listen to small sellers just penelise them for being there.
So i opened my own store www.signdezine.co.uk and now do very well thank you ebay. If it wasn't for ebay getting the greedy bug i would probably still be with ebay, their greed and disrespect for the small seller gave me the confidence to go and do it myself with www.signdezine.co.uk I have only 1 regret and that is i should have done my own store years ago. Thank you ebay for giving me the confidence to move on.
Thank you for reading

Go somewhere lese to sell your items
There's too many other sites out there for anyone to have to use eBay. Yes eBay has the traffic. But not if we all go somewhere else.
I have my own website now. I don't pay any fees.
http://www.HacksWholesale.com
It's alos a great place to get invenotry for resellers. There's no minimums. Buy now pay later. Dropshipping is available.
What comes around, goes around..
Maybe when the stock hits $5 a share, they will understand what happened. Or maybe they won't. They are a corporation, they don't worry about those trite things like seller satisfaction.
They will reap what they have sown. This year, to say the least! The market is so ripe for a mature competitor. There is one auction site, online, coming VERY soon. It is managed and owned by a power seller on ebay who understands the morale of it's sellers. And understands that "ebay no longer serves us".

Ebat ebay feebay. start your own store outsite ebay. look at "stores online", "Blue voda", "Soholaunch" or just google it.
Opened my own store.
I opened my own website after being on ebay for a short while. Ebay gobbled most of my profits and this was before the price rise. I now sell Austral washing lines in my own website which has much better conversion rates than ebay anyway.
EBay has no rule against it
I was not a POWERSELLER, but a PowerBuyer who also sold quite a lot...until EBay became so highly Invasive with all of their "new and improved" Demands...rules...plus, we sellers NOW being left in the dark concerning the correct information of buyers...ie...we are not allowed to leave bad feedback for buyers at all when it is well deserved!
Their fees have went through the roof, their powersellers are now allowed way too much liniency concerning lies versus half-truths, etc
I had worked EBay for nearly a decade, under both a personal ID and professional tax-reason ID.
When I bought, my sellers knew I was good for it...when I sold, my buyers more than always returned to watch my future auctions..now?
After nearly giving up on any hope that EBay will survive as they should...as they began...I searched and studied other sites and chose my present site...and, I worked diligently to build my reputation and clientel on the net...so, I placed two final auctions at "that" place, giving my followers, and all who read my description, my reasons and new link.
There are no rules against this...I am simply changing shop addresses, and in legal terms, am advertising in both places as I pay both rents...though the new site demands no fees unless the item is sold, and then the fees are serriously acceptable!
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT&...
So far, over 80 hits on those auctions...and 3 and 5 days left yet!

I used to work for e-bay. Yup I tried a couple of sales. I realized I can make a little money. So I opened up a store. That is when I realized I was just working for e-bay. There were months when the e-bay and paypal fees amounted to more than what I was making. My GROSS sales were in the Thousands of dollars a month. But my actual income was laughable. Then they raised their prices even more. So I decided to join the boycott.
Not only did I join the boycott, I joined it PERMANENTLY. I opened up my own internet store. www.MyDiscountStation.com , I make the same income for 1/2 the work. There are other options out there people.
Probably want to do some homework next time, WPN
"Seller Boycott Fails To Impress eBay"
"If that didn't reinforce the message of eBay's shift in strategy, nothing else will."
Don't you just hate it when you're wrong?
Seems ebay's ridiculous changes, mass exodus of sellers, thus their listings, and all of the incredibly stupid things that they've done over the last 2 years and continue to do HAVE had an impact.
http://www.fool.com/investing/general/2008/12/26/the-fall-and-fall-of-eb...
Leave it to WPN to fully blow it when it comes to accurately capturing the facts when reporting on ebay.
We told you so.
Big bucks
It seems once again the big bucks have been victorious. It will probably stay that way, untill we all become more caring about each other.
Does anybody remember how shell was forced to dismantle an oil rig, due to the public opinion? Well, we have a similar situation here.
You can fool all of the people some of the time, but you cannot fool them all the time - eventually they will find alternatives.
So a bit of advice to ebay - listen to the customers - and advice for the customers: If your supplier doesn't listen, find a different supplier.
Merry christmas, and remember that 2009 is the year of opportunities.
thanks for your article.
thanks for your article. Very help me. I will more like visit to webpronews site. :) Fantastic
DONAHOE IT'S TIME FOR U TO GO!
Paypal AND ebay are the biggest scams out their! Per their User Agreement amendments, Paypal can now withhold users funds for 21-180 days at Paypal's "Sole Discretion" and there is NOTHING a user can do to stop them!
Under the current CEO of ebay's direction, millions of ebay users are forced into ebay's "PAYPAL ONLY" scheme. Other masive & dangerous new policies are being implemented costing users & shareholders MILLIONS!
It's time to get rid of ebay CEO, John Donahoe, NOW!
Please go to the petition to remove Donahoe (and read users comments there) at:
http://www.petitiononline.com/jdonohoe/petition.html
or find it with an internet search of:
"Ebay Stockholders and Sellers Calling For Immediate Termination of John Donohoe CEO"
To see what ebay employees are also suffering, go to wwwglassdoor.com
PLEASE pass this information on to any and EVERYWHERE possible!
No escape
E-bay is hard..but there're other resources in the net..basta attendere un pò!
Alone
E-Bay will go alone.. for ever!

Lift chairs
I am looking for lift chairs for two 80+ persons, with limited mobility. I prefer leather. I also prefer a place to look and try them out. They are only around five feet tall, so small is good.
