I also have been boycotting eBay. Their 'improvements' over the past two years were extremely damaging to my once profitable business. Not only do I refuse to sell there, I also do not buy there - and I encourage others to do the same.
I find these recent announcements to be insulting. It's as if they think we are dumb enough to be placated by something as obviously unhelpful as this latest announcement.
Sorry, I didn't mean to turn this thread into an anti-eBay rant.
I really like Auctiva's new newsletters!!
