Not coffee just seriously fed up with corporate fools messing with people lives and incomes. I have friends who rely on Ebay for their livelyhood and it is now being destroyed because of these changes. I dont see one ounce of this company caring about the people who made them who they are today. It is only simple logic that with what they are doing here they WILL be on a downward spiral very soon.

But it HAS been on a downward spiral ever since JD took over. They've resorted to "creative" reporting to make it seem less bad than it is but the spin gets far beyond laughable.
Yes, a lot of people relied on Ebay for their livelihoods but you have to remember that Ebay doesn't belong to the public, nor does it answer to us. If they did, most of Ebay's management would probably be serving prison terms right now. For that matter, I wouldn't be a bit surprised to see some of them doing that anyway sooner or later, but I doubt it'll happen. In the mean time, they can do whatever they darn well feel like and your best option is to take your business someplace more reliable.
For the life of me, I can't understand why anyone even -tries- to sell things on Ebay now. You have to agree to terms that basically say that you have to pay them money for a service that they may or may not even try to provide - and if you're lucky enough to sell your items, Ebay will take more in fees than most loan sharks.
