Promoting other sellers on our item page???

[movieman630]

I know this is nothing new but I'm certain they changed the placement of the other items on the item listing page. 

Why when I click on one of my items do I see items for sale by other sellers on my item's page?  This is especially frustrating when this is happening on Promoted listings.  We're paying ebay to "promote" our items not someone elses items.  So when a potential buyer clicks on one of our listings they may see the same item for sale from a different seller in that listing.

Why?  What's the purpose of promoting OTHER sellers items on MY page?  I'm paying you to "Promote" my item not someone else's.

I personally think ebay should stop promoting other sellers items on a listings page if it's being "Promoted".  You want to show "other listings" on a regular listing, have at it but when we're paying you upwards of 10% more for a Promotion, promoting competitor's items is a little "tacky".

It's a brave new world.

Yes, I see that same thing on my item page, promoting another seller with similar items when I am also paying for an eBay store every month. Online marketplace sites do not care how they make their profits, even if it means biting the hand that feeds them. It's all about money and greed. But at least they are not as bad as the corrupt mainstream media, the courts, and big pharma.

If you use promoted listings your items can appear on other seller's pages.  

Due to the age of this thread a professional will be around shortly to remind me what a doofus I am.
