Maybe eBay's parent corporation needs a tax write-off?

[judith525]

I have seen businesses purposefully decrease consumer satisfaction so they can go bankrupt and shut down.  Like a mogul who owns 5 restaurants and one is doing poorly, so, at that restaurant,  they decrease staffing and raise prices and then shut down, then claim the loss on their taxes. 

I only started participating in the community forum maybe 6 weeks ago, and it is unbelievable how many sellers are having issues.  At first, I thought, "No proper business could be that bad, maybe the seller just doesn't know what they are doing", but sheer  numbers don't lie.

Yesterday, finally,  I researched other online selling companies, but still, eBay is the least expensive for me. 

Have any of you considered the possibility of starting up your own online sellers' forum?  I'd join!

Ebay IS the parent company...........and is still making ALOT of money despite what you read on these boards........

Any discussion board of this kind attract people who have "troubles" of one kind or another so you will get a skewed view toward the negative. 

There are a number of facebook groups on ebay/other online venues...... yahoo used to have some but don't know if they exist any more..........you just have to look for them.....
