It really depends on which site you are talking about. In the two categories I sell, books and china, though eBay was, it is not now, nor will it likely ever again be, the market leader when it comes to selling on line.
That is eBay has finally, and very belatedly, come to realise its core business is selling advertising space to small sellers, and in the past five year more and more of those core customers have left, never to return. Never to return because the seller has for some time had viable alternatives to go to, sites which appreciated their business. Oh and it's likely to get a lot worse (for eBay) as more and more buyers start to use their search engine, instead of logging directly into sites, to search for goods they want.
This is what this initiate is all about. Attempting to claw back business lost by the inept buyer bias decisions of the past, but frankly, considering the quality of the competition out there, it may well be a case of gates and lost horses.
