"PUT EBAY ON THE DEFENSIVE! Contact your federal elected officials and ask for an investigation of possible insider trading and other anti competitive ebay practices that have been discussed in other blogs. Make a formal complaint to the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). Email the news media and business press. Let's create a sky full of substantive smoke that even Bear Sterns can no longer afford to ignore denials and protestations whining "conspiracy theories."
eBay is spending huge amounts of money to spin this story. Send this link to your friends. Make your own Squidoo lens.
When you hear eBay cheerleaders praising the new initiative, ask yourself "How are they making money off of eBay?"
How many of these people are selling "How To" books? How many are selling the faded dream of being your own boss on eBay? How many are non-Power Sellers that ACTUALLY sell items on eBay?
You aren't your own boss any more - eBay is your new master. Empower yourself and throw off the chains!

eBay - I hardly know you now...
"If it ain't broke - don't fix it", well if nothing else don't fix it all at once. eBay was once a fun place to buy and sell. Not anymore. It's a dog-eat-dog world over there now. This lens will keep you informed of the iron-fisted tactics eBay is imposing on it's community. PLEASE BOOKMARK THIS SITE! Content will be added until we are crushed as well!

eBay Inc. will receive the Better Business Bureau President's Award for sustained superior performance. The online auction site is one of several businesses accepting a BBB International Torch Award at a ceremony on April 8 at the National Press Club in Washington, DC. The Torch Awards are given by the Council of Better Business Bureaus to recognize businesses and executives exhibiting integrity in the marketplace and exemplary dedication to fostering trust between businesses and consumers.
Steven J. Cole, President and CEO of the Council of Better Business Bureaus, stated in a press release, "In just 13 years, eBay had truly changed the marketplace and shaped the definition and expectation of trust between buyers and sellers. eBay has demonstrated clear leadership and fostered trust between members by keeping the marketplace safe for consumers around the globe."

eBay Forces Sellers to Give 20% to Charity
Selling tickets to a charitable event. eBay has another mandate for you. Just bringing sellers and buyers together, eh? There's an awful lot of rules and regulations imposed by eBay. Hmmm... is eBay an EMPLOYER of sellers?
eBay to hide ALL auction bidder IDs
eBay relied on users to police the site and report shill bidders. That will be a lot more difficult now.
