I'm well aware. Didn't you see where I said I've already axed 20 new sites for fear of non-performance? But that shouldn't need to be the case. We should try new avenues and new ventures. You never know what might work, if you don't try. Many of the folks were no under-performers. I don't feel I was. I had one site that was pulling in XXXX a month steady. Now that's gone. That's just one site. Steve clearly states that it wasn't fraud ( I knew that already, I've been playing by the rules ), but that we've been let go due to some mysterious figures that we're not allowed to know. So we don't know if we're doing well or not???? Probably the folks that were let go where the ones that didn't bring in many new members, had folks that ebay felt "would have bought that item regardless of the affiliate", and therefore let those affiliates go. I mean, if I was in this business, I'd probably think that way too. The thing is, my site wasn't like that. We found old/rare/mis-labeled items that would have sold for $10, but due to us finding it and promoting it, sold for much much more. It's a win / win place in my eyes. I hope to dispute it, and have someone look at it, as I do like ebay, and I understand business is business, but as long as the fair shake goes both ways, I'll still be there. If not, then I'll just find a new avenue I suppose, and the planned expansions into other areas will go forward but in other areas. I do feel this will hurt ebay in the long run as folks left behind will diversify more and instead of pursuing more ebay, they'll look elsewhere, and I know I would if I wasn't removed. ... Frustrated.
