Did you mean: 

eBay is dead. Long live eBay.

I've been here for 25 years. When you offer something for sale on eBay today and there's no one around to hear it, does it make a sound?

Actually has been a very good month so far for me. Not dead for me. Maybe you sold the wrong junk.

 

Wow with all those $1.98 sales with Free Shipping you are really rocking it. Maybe you should go lick a stamp and stop licking frogs that make you high.


You're going to criticize someone because they're having a good month?

So anyone who is not here complaining about slow sales is the enemy?

You find it insulting that some sellers are doing well?

You don't have anything listed.  But I'm sure you know that.

The junk I sell is only of the highest grade.

I just flashed on the Matthew McConaughey "Data Forest" commercial. It was pretty cool. 😎

If you think it's bad on Ebay you should check about the Amazon and Etsy Seller forums. 

The Amazon seller forums are especially entertaining.   

 

They are also full of sellers whining about slow sales, high fees, bad customer service support, site issues,  "forced" to pay to play, holding funds, scammy buyers abusing returns, arbitrarily removing listings, account restrictions, being sued by somebody, merchandise lost in the FBA warehouse, smaller sellers being screwed in favour of the big boys. 

 

 


Amazon is a different animal all together. It’s essentially a retail store.  It’s a tough game, for those unprepared. Amazon would actually be better if they made selling on the site even harder. A lot of junk and fraudulent items still get through.
