Seller leaving ebay

[michellebartley]

I just received an email from seller in the UK stating they are leaving ebay due to their high costs and said they were changing to Amazon.
I wonder if thats going to start a new trend?

Really HBH, maybe a browser issue ... try Amazon vs eBay search  ...the billions each is amassing is mindboggling and I am unsure how you relegate Amazon to DUD

Back on topic, competition would be a good thing for eBay sellers and buyers, a virtual monopoly only helps shareholders, not the people that actually make the business work..........................

What you need to do is post in sympathy with the OP.

If several OPs post diametrically opposed theses, you have to support the one one who the majority of posters don't. or both/all if you possibly can.

Logic is to be foresworn at all times, as the point is to have a go at regular posters (other than yourself) at all times.

Not for books. Their T&Cs are far more horrendous than eBay's. Of course I have actually checked them out....

Indeed, as OP indicated in their post, sellers putting eggs in others in other baskets is now becoming more apparent.

you sell used books in oz of course it has not attraction for you, you represent a minuscule market segment.

try actually reading my previous post cats, I know it's hard for you but.............. or perhaps go and try and buy something other than kindles from amazon australia and then tell me how wonderful it is...........

Ignoring the fact that used books are a bit more than a miniscule market, Amazon's foray into Australia for books (what they are mainly setup for) is an expensive minefield. And unlikely to challenge any established site in this country.
