Is payBay joking, or insulting the buyers? .....

[slantycouch]

So you're asking if the seller is trying to insult buyers?

Joe,
Was watching the same ones at $75, and got a chuckle when they went to $90. I was gonn'a email them, and offer $45 on one , but didn't feel like being a d!ck .................... maybe tomorrow

Damn!
That means that I've got to up my bid to $50,00, but no more.

No ..... I'm stating what payBay is bulldozing the seller to say, and do.

eBay + Paypal = Monopoly = payBay .....

I hate eBay fees as much as the next guy, but the seller isn't being forced to sell on eBay.

Pray tell, where then?

Where would you recommend that a hockey seller from Canada sell his stumbled upon T210's?

Why do you think there's hopeful talk about another option to payBay?

Personally, I would suggest eBay. But then I wouldn't have a right to complain about the fees.

I'm just saying that if someone wants to play, they have to play by the rules. If they don't like them, they have to make the decision how bad they want to play.

Ebay wouldn't be as big as it is if all of the folks who feel it's unfair just stopped using it.

Let's hope a better option comes along.

Before this community was ever a dream, back at the 1990 Texas National, when advised about Dr Koos, and his creations, many of the dealers buried their heads in the sand ... hopeing he would go away ... he didn't, and he came back to haunt.

payBay only understands one thing ..... MONEY!

You don't try to reason with a DunderHead that's killing a Golden Goose.

If this community, and the lurkers that read it want to get the DunderHeads attention, there's only one way to do it, but it takes pelotas.

Boycott it! --- ..... --- But it wont happen, just like the Texas National, SOME of the dealers, and sellers wont band together, and that was a BIG disappointment to this collector.

payBay knows that ... it's their ball, and they will continue to bulldoze with as much as they are allowed to get away with.

Only people with pelotas are allowed in this game, all others need not apply.

Joe,

Your anger is misplaced in this case. A seller who fails to sell something at $75 and relists it at $90 is making questionable business decisions. But they are his decisions, not Ebay's.

There are plenty of things to get upset about with Ebay. This isn't one of them.

[slantycouch]

Joe - We're on the same page. I don't think it will ever happen because many people value what it has to offer, good or bad. As you said, where else would someone go?

As a for profit company trying to maximize their profits, I can't blame them for making money for their shareholders.

Until someone with pelotas steps up and pushes them out, you're right, they're not going to change.
