eBay

There are some people who work with this platform that are quite unethical. and unprofessional. Just because I want a better eBay, they misconstrue the values of my observations and my renderings on this forum. In this Social Media age, where many organizations are consolidating on their reliable customers and fighting for new customers, some unethical people on this platform undermine the efforts of sellers on this platform, they have forgotten that sellers bring food to the table for eBay. No matter how small you think a seller is on this platform, that seller bring food to the table for eBay. It is a clear lack of appreciation when you start fiddling with my account/ reviews because I called you out. If I don't sell, I will call you out because I know how much effort I put into what I do on this platform. If you tax me too much, I will call you out. We are all supposed to be making money here, if money is good for eBay, money is good for me too. eBay declares Billions of Dollars every year, but you are not ashamed that a fulltime seller on your platform had never declared up to minimum wage from sales here since several years he started to sell on eBay. Before you undermine my efforts on this platform, remember I pay $60 subscription every month; if you multiply $60 by about 5million similar subscribed sellers, that is about $300M Subscription we collectively pay you every month.

If their only job is to connect sellers & buyers, they need to go back to JUST being the middleman instead of consistently interfering with how sellers want to sell.
Sure thing, just let the thieves and incompetent take over the place and kill it once and for all!

They tried that at the very beginning and it was a disaster. Sellers running amok and scamming buyers then telling them to get lost.

I like the way you brush important issues on the surface, that is the best way to market manipulation.

You could fight with your spouse, but it doesn't mean you want a divorce.

Prove that it doesn't.

Go and look at my listing, I have just increased it. Is that what you mean by hating eBay?

Prove that it doesn't.

The burden of proof falls on the person making the claim.

Truth tellers like the O.P. are a hundred times more important than cheerleaders and coverup artists.

Gold star reply!

How does security risk come into this discussion? eBay cannot ruin any seller? eBay does not have such powers. eBay can stop a seller from selling on eBay if Ebay is not benefitting from the relationship. But no good business entity will want to lose a reliable customer. An employee mindset is different from owner mentality when it comes to business transactions. eBay is one of the front runners in online selling but there are many other online selling platforms.

Your defense is weak because you don't have the information I have on the issue. Unfortunately, I don't owe you any explanation. My reply on the review is facts and I am not seeking any validation to be seen as a good person.

Lol, that is actually very funny. If it's a conspiracy theory, I am sure the buyers of the 2 items I mentioned would have known about it.

I know how the forum works; I know more than you think I know

@chapeau-noir "Your analogy could have filled the Vessel if it was flowing from a wide funnel, The funnel you use in your analysis is quite narrow that is why I heard a drop of water from the cacophony of your typewriter,"

I have no idea what that response to you means, but ya gotta admit, the line: " I heard a drop of water from the cacophony of your typewriter" has a certain poetic sensibility to it.

It is true, look what's happening to nextdoor, they are ganging up on posters that expose businesses and contractors' fraud by complaining to the community, it's like if someone hired them to defend the business in question, and you can tell by the tone of the replies.
