Can Anyone Here Get Through to Dean's?
 

I am tired of updating all my searches to exclude him. His library of cards are literally 50% of my search items. Is there any petition we can start to get him removed? He is everywhere with is absurdly overpriced crap. SO FREAKING TIRED OF SEEING HIS CRAP PLEASE HELP!!!! Seriously, is there any violation on eBay that could stick? I mean his sell through rate sucks so yes occasionally he gets a gullible buyer but it's not like he selling much. He's also everywhere else like Amazon, COMC, etc.

You ain't alone, Patrick...

Seriously?
 

OMG, I am so tired of this. It is not that freaking hard to scroll past a listing on a computer. Have we really gotten this lazy? Its still a lot easier to find material than when we had to go to shows, card shops, flea markets, etc to get stuff. I agree his prices are crazy but come on its not that hard to scroll up and down a computer page plus a free market should be just that. If he loses money he would not keep listing stuff, unless he just likes burning money. This is really a first world problem if i have ever heard one.

I'd have to think that once we spoke about his name, or deniro, being in the card title, and subsequently their removal of it, people are watching. There was a day when you could simply type -dean's into your search and all your problems would be solved.

Glynn, it's not a few pages, literally half of the listings under my searches are his, eBay has a glitch for me when I edit a search it doesn't seem to want to update my exclusion of him, I have to start the search from scratch to exclude him.... Imagine if literally HALF of your TV channels was a show like "THE VIEW"

Exactly Tony
 

My post war search usually has about 1M hits, so OVER HALF of them are DEANS!!! Seriously, would there be a way to get a petition going?

He sold 17 items yesterday, most of them sub -$20 purchases.

That means of his 600K+ items 99.99998 of his cards sat there collecting dust wasting all of our time.....There should be some kind of required sell-through rate

As for scrolling past Dean's listings, it's something I do every day, but it's still annoying. Just last night, I cursed him as I scrolled past hundreds of his overpriced cards. Listings like his are essentially spam on eBay. They clog up searches and waste people's time, making eBay far less efficient. No doubt eBay loves the fact that it has a gazillion listings, but its lack of efficiency — as well as its lack of concern for customers who have to wade through such nonsense every time they search for something — could one day prove its undoing. In place of eBay, I'd like to see a variety of smaller sites roughly based on the eBay model, but focused on specific markets, like baseball cards, for instance.
