eBay going from Bad to WORST every single day now !!!

[altar_x]

Ever since they changed their CIO, eBay has been going behind. This can be seen by them in their monthly reports. They managed to drive out thousands of sellers because of their ridiculous and ill-considered changes. Honestly, if they don't change something, eBay will probably become the new aliexpress. From here, only Chinese rubbish can be bought, which is already flooding the world. It would be good for the admins to pay attention to all these opinions, because they are not insignificant.

There is no point in flooding the boards with more than one post, your first post is sufficient

I think you mean CEO.

I'm unsure of what numbers you have been looking at, but Ebay financials shows 2020 was a VERY good year and 2021 has been good too.  Not as good as 2020 but still good.  Of course we haven't yet seen 4th Quarter numbers.  So I'm not sure where you are getting that numbers are getting worse.  Ebay puts out Quarterly numbers not monthly.

Well if 1,000's of sellers were driven out many more started selling.  In the second quarter of this year we gained over 1 MILLION sellers worldwide.  3rd quarter it remained about what it was in the 2nd quarter.  And we are about 45 days away from knowing where it lands for the year.

Seems like I read this same thing somewhere else.

The saddest part is we can bash eBay all day long and the real issues that will impact online selling in 2022 and beyond are being forced upon us by our government in the form of taxes & aligned with big business and big tech. Research the "Shop Safe" act. That's scarier than anything else for online sellers.

Yeah, deja vu all over again. 😣

  Ebay broke the long term terndline, which is often a red flag warning in trading. But it's still in the safe zone. When it gets in the the $50 range, you should think about investing again.

oh it's going to take a huge hit ... maybe not so much this year but NEXT.... woof...... if I had any left I would have sold

Yes, they are doing quite well. My sales sure reflect that especially this Christmas.  Jamie Ionnone has a very good focus for this website. I think they are cashing in on the high value items , and getting out of the flea market mentality that has kept the GMV down. Getting more buyers who stay on the site and spend more money.

The stock market is crazy volatile right now. You would expect a lot of fluctuations.

ANY of these changes you are speaking of are done to instill buyer confidence, make products more visible to the buyers and easier to find which in turn creates a better shopping experience.

Going behind what? And what monthly reports are you referring to?

What aspect(s) of the proposed Shop Safe act do you object to?

This must explain why every time I list high value items, they NEVER sell!   lol

You have to publicly post receipts for what you purchased as well as your ID. What if you purchased a new in box toy from a flea market ... now big business & governement want to basically eliminate competition because they know anything you paid for cash you won't have a receipt for.
