I have been a member of EBAY even before it was EBAY. I cannot remember the name at this point of time. It was a great place to visit and it was loved by everyone. I now only sell on 1 account but this is my posting account. My Question? Why is there so much Bickering on EBAY these days. Someone is always complaining about EBAY fees, EBAY rules EBAY postage Paypay Holdings, and it goes on and on. Then you have users having a go at each other, What ever happened to the good old days?

Things get taken far too seriously at times ..... by the way I'm an oldie too, so maybe my opinion doesn't count ...

I find its usually the same old sour people who have nothing better to do than hide behind their computer screen. Would like to see them speak that way to someone face to face like that.

Uuuummmmmm please read it properly. "Same old People"   "Same old car as I had"   "Has same old bat as me"

 

Does not mean OLD people if read properly. And i stand by what I said. It is the same ones who belittle others for what they percieve as silly questions.

linus if you have been on ebay so long you would understand the frustration of a system that changes the rules every few weeks,and how the small seller is getting hurt to big business. you remember when ebay was an auction site. i have had to change my business model so many times to keep up its ridiculous. its all buy it now, free postage, and sending things to big w or woolworths.

its not loved by everyone THE GOOD OLD DAYS, was when ebay didnt take our postage money and let big business take over

Yes that maybe so. But I am sorry. When reading a lot of the message boards here there are a lot of people that just like to try and be-little others just because they may ask what they percieve as a stupid question. I dont think it is really warrented to be rude or disrespectful to anyone and also the other point I did say was it is usually the same lot of people who do it. That is all I said and I stand by it. And there has been some pretty rude people on here weather you agree or not.
