DISQUS

One of the more interesting things about e-bay though is the defection of some of their sellers, a request from their sellers to increase and reemphasize the ebay store system, as well as the complex fee structure that ebay has when it comes to putting product on the ebay system. They have a lot of competition, and have not really made much value out of half.com or other acquisitions either. It makes for an interesting complex mixture of competition, and not using the systems they have bought to their best extent. As well, they need to reduce the complexity of fee structures to be more in line with what their competition is doing, amazon, alibris, and others. They might see better growth if they could get a handle on what they have, and start matching the simpler fee structures adopted by their competition. My 2 cents. thanks.
