So I was wrong. I thought for sure that there would be no impact to a EBAY
boycott.
I guess FEEBAY manage to piss off one too many sellers.

eBay sellers decided to boycott eBay listings in order to protest the recent
changes in the feedback policy and fee-hikes. The listings dropped 13% or 13
million items in a week, reports USA Today
<http://www.usatoday.com/tech/techinvestor/corporatenews/2008-02-24-ebay-strike_N.htm>
, citing third party sources. eBay denies that there has been any impact on
its listings. I don't buy the company line in this case. eBay and its
management needs to take a cold hard look at why the sellers took such an
extreme step. In my opinion it is a corporate low-point for any company when
your customers decide to strike and boycott you? By the way, eBay's new
nickname FeeBay is quite funny actually.
