You do not work for Ebay therefore you cannot form a union.

I woud be happy if ebay had some quality control

 

one of the ways quality is evaluated is by saying what you do and doing what you say

 

ebay can clearly state what they are suppsod to be capable of but cant do it

ebay cant do what its says it can.....poor quality control

 

why boast about improved stuff that does not do what its supposed to do

This is true. But a sales association could be possible. Just like many companies and individuals are in. Many have funds that keep lobbyist in the Capitol to curry favors for their associations benefits.  Since Congress has yet to enact any meaningful legislation that benefits the "tiny people" against the few "super people" who control the internet, the only way would be through a powerful association of "tiny people" Without the 'tiny people" the "super people" would actually have to work for a living.

And then what? "Union" reps call eBay to negotiate, and eBay tells them to pound sand.

 

Then what? You're not an employee; the government isn't going to step in and force eBay to negotiate.

 

"Form a union" is even more ridiculous than the "start a class action suit" threats we see on here regularly.

Health insurance to treat the cancer caused by smoking?   Nuff said.

...another "copy cat" from Amazon...?

 

...or...is the USA following the same foot step of the USSR in "October Revolution 1917 " although it met its end in 1991...?

 

...the discussion can spread further...

 

@dnasilver...must have to agree with your input that unions lobby our Congress heavily for personal interests more than the peoples they are represented...and don't be naive to think Congressmen and women so "innocent", they get some "good things" in return...it's part of the "deep state"...

@jayjaspersgarage I don't smoke.  Just need health insurance while hubby finds a new job since he lost the old one due to the pandemic.  A little sensitivity please.

Sorry about that.   My comment was directed to the type of listings the OP sells.  All cigarette related products and advertising.  Sorry hubby is out of work as I have been for a YEAR.  That's the problem with message boards when readers can't follow the string of logic and don't look to see what the OP sells.  

 

Yes the pandemic sucks.  Luckily I lost three relatives in 2017 so I was primed for it.

What I sell is none of your business. I sell Vintage and Antique items. Some of them are tobacco collectibles. You people sure don't have a problem with all of the social programs cigarette taxes pay for. Probably much more than the health problems associated with smoking. Are you now going to lobby that no smoking related products be sold on eBay? I'm so tired of you offended "Woke" people.
