Today (or in a few hours, for some of you) -- Feb 13 -- all auction listings will be just 20 cents. I've got a bunch of crap laying around that I've wanted to sell for a while now, but several bucks each was not too fun. Now there's no real risk to trying. I can do two dimes!

I'm shocked SHOCKED that they are actually reacting to the strike.

I for one think it is rediculous that you (as a seller) can no longer leave feedback for the buyer. What the heck is with that?

eBay cancelled an auction of mine just now because I used a "spammy keyword".
Assgobbling bastards.
I wish they'd go bankrupt and/or be sued for millions of dollars.

You can leave feedback. Just not negative feedback. They shifted all the power to the buyer.

That's the same as leaving no feedback at all. What a joke. Now I know why Ebay sucks, If you are a seller that is.

I've also heard that they might starting charging the buyers a small fee for the use of their services.

I think they are pushing it too far. If they start charging buyers, I think they will see the userbase start to shrink. People only put up with so much garbage, then they defect. I think google is keeping a very close eye on the situation.

lol. before i would just hijack sales. meaning ill search for things i would sell and message all the bidders on someones item and tell them i had the same item but would charge maybe a 1$ less. i was doing this with music cds and would end up selling to about 3-4 bidders on the item. i would just PM them on ebay and have them email me or just send the money straight to the paypal address i would provite them.
