I know someone that does nothing but Ebay for a living. EBay has been doing some very fucked up things lately to buyers and sellers.
One of them is the feedback system where comments that are made effect the ranking of items for sale. The idea was to keep bad sellers down the list and good sellers at the top. However even 1 singular negative comments will kill ranking for an item.
Thus a dearth of the bigger stores buy items from independent sellers then put in negative feedback with the sole reason to put dents on other sellers reputations.
Ebay also raised the prices they take on items sold. There is alot of weird shit going on over there these days. This artical does not surprise me because it is precisely why Seller's are raging pissed about the new feedback system.
It wouldnt surprise me if that git behind the desk sells on EBay also and sells Cell Phones and bought an item to damage the reputation of a competitor.
