The extremely high prices, unfair new policies, banning of choice of payments, the overload of ebay's new class of sellers ("Diamond Sellers" selling cheap, bulk-made, foreign knock-offs) receiving millions of free listings, burying smaller sellers items, who have suffered two recent fee increases, and the arbitrary restrictions and suspensions of smaller users is killing fair trade on ebay. With ebay CEO, John Donahoe, implementing policies geared toward banning the small sellers and pushing for mega companies with millions of the millions of listings for the same junk (listing after listing), which BTW, you can buy cheaper, elsewhere, I sure wouldn't expect much from ebay except high bills and massive headaches. The antique dealers and the one of a kind dealers are leaving for fairer safer venues. Don't forget that ebay owns Paypal and is now forcing the majority of it's users to use Paypal ONLY...along with that, PLEASE check your Paypal user agreement which now allows Paypal, at it's "sole discretion" to withhpold users funds for up to 180 days! To see what ebayers are now experiencing, search the internet for "Ebay Stockholders and Sellers Calling For Immediate Termination of John Donohoe CEO Petition" at petitiononline. Employees' views of ebay's horrendous upper management can be viewed by going to glassdoor (dotcom).
