Ebay delibrately leaving bad items on the board - they need the $$$

[RichardSimon]

Ebay is now telling some EMR members that there has been a "technical bug" in the system and that is the reason for the failure to remove items that are being reported.
That "technical bug" has now lasted for quite some time.
Seems to me that with all their money they could have hired Bill Gates to come over and fix it.

I hope it was a technical bug that sent out the e-mail with their new "Fee Updates".

Ebay has been removing auctions during the last 48 hours.

Ebay has sent out e mails to EMR members blaming a technical issue for this problem. It seems that whether or not it was a technical issue bogus items are now being removed once again.
If it was a technical issue it sure took them a long time to fix it.
Let us hope it is a permanent fix.

The "dancing in the streets" has been canceled.

At least we have a better chance now of comparing fact from fiction. With JSA & PSA having "protectionism" we will only be bombarded with the occasional horrible fake as opposed to near every damn listing.

It is much better this way. This way, we can pick-out a bad JSA or PSA items once in a while instead of looking at "Favorite Son" Christopher Moralass, & Tony "don't call me Jorge" Podsada specials all day long. It will keep the initial moron away at least.

lol, aint that the truth. The fact that free listings are adding up to 13% now is really getting carried away. I did notice that they were taking part of our shipping fees (LOL) what a rip off. It's like the other companies on my banned list.... spending out of control for their execs, but beat the stuffing out of their customers at EVERY TURN. Just like E bay. The more I think about it, the more I need to add E-bay to my banned company list.
