Skip eBay???????

This is a comment I got on my blog and I was hoping to get some opinions from the comments stated below what do you think? Is eBay getting to expensive and is the smaller seller or individual getting ripped of by the big wigs at eBay. Tell me what you think?

“SKIP eBay! and BEWARE of Pay-pal (owned by eBay)!

eBay has the highest prices due to their outrageous user fees and their FORCED Pay-pal payment policies.

Ex-eBay CEO, Whitman, and current CEO, Donahoe’s “Disruptive Innovation” scheme against users is causing the users to flee in droves. 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, while 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 free listings, which BTW, you can buy cheaper, elsewhere, I sure wouldn’t expect much from eBay except high bills and massive headaches.

Don’t forget that eBay owns Pay-pal and is now forcing the majority of it’s users to use Pay-pal ONLY…along with that, PLEASE check your Pay-pal user agreement which now allows Pay-pal, at it’s “sole discretion” to withhold users funds for up to 180 days!

Their are plenty of other venues, which offer FAR BETTER, customer service, lower prices, fairer and safer transactions, such as bonanzle, amazon and etsy.

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).”

Personally I believe that you get different problems with the other sites out there so I’m sticking with eBay as even though I’m a smaller seller I still regularly make a profit. How about you?
