I agree, Ebay is simply lost, they do the stupidest things. My business (not baseball card related) no longer sells on ebay at all, though we do list a limited number of things on Amazon.
I had an Amazon sales rep approach me at the National - it was clear that they considered ebay to be their main competition. I'm sure the 90-day return policy for the holidays was just copying ebay, but to me it seems like a very stupid response: Ebay already has the sellers, which is why they could implement such a stupid policy which is clearly all about the buyer. Amazon, on the other hand, is looking for sellers. Amazon's decision makes no sense, and is just another reason why I won't be using them to sell my collectibles.
