eBay

1. Please fix the item Specifics in Clothing. It has been over 30 days now and the listings are still a mess

2. Please fix the Markdown manager. The sales do not start on time nor do they end when supposed to

3. Make nice with Paypal. Many of us do not want to change to Managed Payments

4. Make nice with Google so that potential buyers can see our listings

Many Thanks in advance

Your odds would be better if you bought a lottery ticket.

#4 my sales are down almost 30% over last month, which were down over the previous month. That's an accelerated rate!

Christmas is 5 weeks away! I've spent a ton stocking up inventory for 4Q. I'm not getting views, I'm not getting watchers, I'm not getting feedback... there is no traffic at all

Ebay is buying back their stock en masse which means they are NOT investing in things like advertising, site upgrades or expanding in any way. It's looking like it may be the end

One would have to conclude Ebay no longer cares about fixing the problems which tells the real story here. I am still waiting to hear what the changes will be after Jordan sent the email that things were going to change. After that- zero communication again. Ebay should be jumping through hoops right now trying to improve things for the sellers as any company would do that is trying to save what is left. Instead, nothing, which is not good. Why they are not reaching out to sellers is a mystery to me.

Your odds would be better if a flying saucer landed on your front lawn at 2 am and a 3 legged purple unicorn popped out and presented you with the winning powerball lottery ticket.

Agree! Since the new listing specs have gone into place my sales have dropped significantly. I can see that my profits have gone down 50% since September and continue to drop. I'm not sure why?

I respect that there has been a bit more info going out from ebay since the new VP (I think) came to ebay but since his last message of how he will be more seller friendly (which is great) my sales have declined rapidly. I'm not sure if is because I am waiting to try out ebay managed payments or what but I can see my traffic also has significantly decreased since October. I'm not sure if it is just me as I was doing great and growing but then mid October came (with no changes in my listings or amounts) and business and traffic dropped like a rock. I'll hang on as long as I can but if no improvements soon, I'll have to have a fire sale and move on with something else.
