EBAY -- Reasons To Be Cautious About It Future

Quote from Sam Mcgee:

They're not treating their buyers too well either. Yes, I've found a few better deals on Ebay and saved a few dollars. But the money I've lost on fraudulent transactions has been more than the money I've saved. Ebay's reactions to any fraud complaints is absolutely pathetic.

I wish they would get some serious competition from Yahoo Auctions or elsewhere.

You're just not doing your homework on the seller. I've made over 200 transactions on ebay and have NEVER lost any money. One time I didn't receive my item, and ebay (paypal) refunded my money almost immediatly.
 
I know a bunch of sellers who have their cousin or friend bid on items if the selling prices are too low late in the auction cycle. This is just blatant fraud and what is the point of having an auction if there isn't much chance of getting a bargain?

Seems you're continuing to pester people as usual.

By asking someone to explain a totally vague statement? It seems that actually going beyond not thinking into the realm of thinking still pesters you. :p

Ebay has good good future but I dont see the stock go anywhere anytime soon.

Since you're not going to expand on any of the retarded comments you've made I'm going to post this loop of you dancing twinkie fucker:

But like all the complaints about microsoft, til there is a viable competitor, Ebay still rules the online auction market.

And people don't get on Ebay only to buy electronics, the marketplace for collectibles is HUGE and irreplaceable. If you collect something weird like say, vintage porcelain dresden dolls, or want say rare lotus tubers from Thailand for your watergarden in the backyard, or need a vintage 1890 washboard to decorate your office wall, or you collect lalique Coty bottles pre-1920 you WILL find some on Ebay within a week. That is unbelievable. THAT will keep buyers coming back.
eBay brought liquidity to previously very sparse/thin markets. While it's never good to mistreat any stakeholders/participants, until someone else can start to match the breadth of their offerings - they have the mkt locked up.

Why would you ever list an item somewhere where you may not even get a bid when you can get people competing for your product?
