Default eBay wants to become less of an auction site and more of a store
eBay downplays auctions in favor of fixed-priced listings
Quote:
In addition to the fixed-price fee changes, which will go into effect on September 16, eBay is also apparently axing buyer protection for anyone not using PayPal to complete their transactions.

Nice job eBay, keep abandoning the reason your site became so popular.

eBay is all about auctions. If we wanted to buy store-brand stuff, we'd use amazon. Like you said DSG, it's the whole reason eBay is what it is.

This is going to be like the Germans between 1941 and 1945. They deny their own past.
