The number of 100% feedback sellers being removed from eBay is now tearing
at my soul..

If Walmart discharges just 500 workers then it becomes front page news, but
these workers do get the benefit of at least un-employment insurance ..
Since the shake up at eBay with the CEO's new disruptive innovation theory,
tens of thousands of decent hard working sellers are now finding them selves
out of their job with no benefit of anything ..

When is this going to see the light of day so these people put out of their
business can be heard in the public forum? There are hundreds of thousands
of single mothers, grand parents, students, families, veterans and disabled
Americans that earn most or all their families income from this site who
have helped to build the site to what it was at its peak!! For their
patriotage they are now finding them selves on the out side looking in for
deeds that are outside their control!! As much as we cannot control the
weather, nor can we control the time that USPS, UPS, FEDEX or any other out
side delivery source will deliver our packages. *Ebay wants us to offer free
shipping, *well *we all would like our parcels to be delivered free where
ever possible, But yet the cost is mostly outside the control of the vendor
for that service .. But if you use the eBay shipping cost calculator YOU
WILL BE BOOTED OFF eBay for excessive shipping cost for charging the actual
shipping cost !!!

WHEN IS SOMEBODY GOING TO COME FORWARD AND CHAMPION FOR THESE DISPLACED
SELLERS??

THE EBAY SELLERS NEED A HERO & THEY NEED IT NOW!!! Children are going with
out eating, our senior sellers are now going with out medicines that they
use the sellers profit to pay for, students are dropping out of school
because they no longer have their eBay income to help with their educational
cost..

My thought is that most people in todays business environment look at these
sellers like numbers or widgets on a big business board someplace because
they are termed sellers instead of workers! But each individual seller is a
live warm breathing person who goes through all the same hardships or more
when they are displaced from their selling role for factors outside their
control if not more because there is no un-employment relief for these
persons or families!!

For God's sake, the economy is in a tumble, it's Christmas time isn't it
time for somebody to put this out where it can be heard for what it is!!

eBay wants to be like Amazon. Amazon is more intelligent about
emphasis on the buyer. eBay wants their nose so far up the buyers
butt they don't care that the buyers are a great percentage lazy
dishonest stupid assholes. The folks at eBay feel a kindred spirit, I
suppose. eBay is a prime example of too many on the payroll trying to
justify their existence. I think both sites are dinosaurs anyway. I
don't buy anything on eBay anymore because all that is left there are
the sellers dishonest enough to survive. I don't sell on eBay anymore
because...see above. In the beginning eBay was a logical genius idea
but left in the hands of nitwits it is just more human folly.
