I saw an interesting article on the decline of eBay's stocks. Just wondering what others opinion's are and how many actually use eBay for buying and selling.
I have to agree with some that eBay is slowly sinking themselves. The fees are really getting out of control for what little eBay actually does for the end user. And changing their policy to allow ONLY payments made via PayPal (which they also own) has really turned a lot of people away. PayPal also charges outrageous fees for a simple money transfer.
In my opinion they are getting a little greedy and I think it may leave a little room for some other site to come in and take over buying and selling on the internet. Although eBay has a very well established name I think they are slowly killing a good thing.
What do you think?
