I was going to list some stuff but if I can strike against the
studios, I can certainly strike against Ebay. I am amazed that such
decisions are made which are so hostile and unnecessary. I mean, do
you think there has been a great outcry from Buyers against
unwarranted negative feedback from Sellers? Certainly not at the
rate that legit Sellers have been complaining about abuse by Buyers
who are backed by Ebay's passive approach to fairness. Which begs
the question; would Ebay rather have bad Buyers who don't pay more
than good Sellers who do? I mean, doesn't it figure that this is a
chicken or egg question? Still, it's as if Ebay has lost faith in
the entire concept of auctions. The bottom line, to borrow a line
from FIELD OF DREAMS... If you sell it...they will Buy!

If ebay gets word of this seller strike, how much would you bet
that they have a free listing day the week prior so they reel
sellers in and grab the extra fees at the end of the sale..... I
haven't been putting much on ebay lately anyways but I am in.
Nothing will be listed by me that week.

Frank,
I had not heard of this strike but I think I am game. Hard though
when consignors are looking over my shoulder. Cost increases of
course impact them as well as its obvious I will have to raise
brokering fee by at least 5%. Well Mopo listings here we
come............

I received notice through one of my on-line Forums that there is to
be a Seller strike against Ebay Feb.18 through Feb.25 to protest
the new listing fees and commissions which go into effect on that
first date. I also ready about this on CNN.com so I presume it is
legitimate. I’ve decided to honor the strike but I’m curious how
many other dealers on the MOPO board know about the strike and plan
to honor it by not posting auction items during that period. Franc
