About EBay - Part III

About eBay Part III EBay Fine-Tunes its Strategy, Auction or Buy Now? About eBay: Pierre Omidyar, a freethinking French national, founded eBay in May 1996. In 1997, he attempted to achieve funding for his fledging online flea market, eBay, by traveling to the then-technology hotbed of Silicon Valley.

EBay has all the necessary tools the sellers would need to succeed online. Tools like the Turbo Lister©, the pro shop, the Skype service that allows buyer sellers real-time, r...

About eBay - Part I

About eBay - Part I Hello Everybody! I have been a power seller on eBay for a while but I must confess that I am very disappointed with the way the online auction giant has treated power sellers in the past. eBay is always about the sellers which I don't have a problem with, but the least eBay could do is protect the powerful sellers from stingy selfish fraudulent buyers who don't care about anything but themselves. This is research I did about eBay and the recommendations I have for the new Director or MD or whoever is in charge of decision-making. I have a few recommendations for eBay executives. I am very upset. Quick Facts about eBay.com Over Labor Day in 1995, Pierre M. Omidyar created a simple auction site and posted it to various bulletin boards. As the site slowly but steadily grew in popularity, it has always been the “eBay Community” that has contributed to and made the site truly “The World’s Online Market Place.” Over the years as the Internet and the technology ...
