Is eBay submitting to Google wrong item pages ? or is that just a cynical use of my product pages to attract customers from google and then send them to shop with "premium sellers"? You'd be the judge of that...
1) Searched Google today for "1n4001 Melbourne". My ebay product page (for item "1N4001 diodes") comes up on Google on page one position 4 to 6. (great...now lets click that link to buy...)
2) Clicked the link from Google page and hit the Ebay page for my product with ebay saying that "i ended this item". Bull crap, i did not end this item it is on auto renewal and has been on auto renewal for years. This product is prominently featured in my store (which i bloody pay monthly subscription fees for) for years and TO DATE.
3) Ebay prominently display "other" sellers on my own product landing page (which supposedly was "ended").
4) Conclusion, another perfect example of how customers are being divested from my own product pages to other sellers in broad day light. My products are being used to attract Google customers and then divested to other sellers once they hit my actual ebay product page.
5) Print screen, Print screen, Print screen......
