One thing you have to remember there are 183 million buyers on eBay. Don't think that PWCC will get the same coverage selling on their own platform.

Now that some of these eyes will no longer be looking at PWCC, they will search for other places to seek out their cards.

It's a win-win situation for other Sellers.

But why, Howard? Not being on ebay hasn't hurt Heritage or REA or Goldin.

Well, REA has built up their customer base outside of eBay. They have never been accused of shilling.

I think that many ebay buyers are not even aware of PWCC's shilling practices. Not all buyers belong to Forums where the topic is discussed. They will receive the eMail that eBay has sent out and now they will hear about it thru word of mouth. I think many of them will no longer bid over at PWCC after hearing about this. Many buyers are not comfortable bidding outside the comforts of eBay.

Interesting.
How long ago did this take place?

I think perhaps a couple of months back.

I'm not a lawyer expert but I think, like you alluded to, that was likely a big mistake on Brent's part.

Well, in a criminal case involving sportscards, he was certainly in an optimal position in terms of representation.

Yes Howard, but I'd guess only a small percentage of that total are looking at cards.
