50% off auction-style listings in January (eBay)

As the new eBay bosses are making things worse and royally pissing off some long-time eBay sellers, it seems that they think that a month-long listing fees discount for selecting listings may sweeten the sour mood just slightly.

The promotion offers 50% auction-style listings for one-day and three-day listings. This is not unconditional as they do have some restrictions. Check your eBay messages or the Seller Central website for more details.

And be sure to tell eBay that you are unhappy with the way they have SCREWED UP eBay the last few years. And that includes YOU new executives!

Why do I say that? Look at the fees, look at the user interface for a seller, look at the convoluted category fees, it's a major pain to list stuff on eBay, and if they sell, eBay takes a BIG chunk of your money. Especially when you have alternatives like Craigslist.

eBay executives,

WAKE UP
