Auction Send Bill Cobb A Clue

Suthrnjewl<---high bidder

Wahm is trying to outbid me though..<smile>

C'Mon folks c'mon with Danielle and I..this is a really cute auction.

Put it in your watching with all of your IDs, too.

I'm hoping it gets on the Pulse.

Just so you can see some other sellers ideas of protesting the pay hike.

Danielle..I have one of these, well several.

Plus the eBay calculator and that other crappolla they sent me.

Hmmm...there's possessed corn on the cob image auctions going, too. That Bill "Cobb" he's everywhere. <smile>

I searched some more terms with fee hike..oh my the possibilities are endless.

Where's some of our store sellers to get in on this?

OMG..Look at this Vampire Bill and MEG fee hike auction

I was just reading elsewhere about doing a search for FEE HIKE - some really funny stuff out there!

Yep the search for the words fee hike came from our buddy at ASM.

<smile>

Thanks folks!
I'm not sure how much of a lifespan my little auction will have - apparently eBay doesn't like the fee hike auctions and has been pulling them left and right.

(I LOVE the wampire one!)

Well....I don't like the FEE HIKES! Wish there was a way to pull them!

No mudslides for you

I just received an email stating that eBay is closing the petition auctions...

They're reason?

Keyword Spamming.

I'm heading over to the auctions now to see how they're doing. Hopefully I'll outbid the two above me as they outbid me originally.
<smile>

Suthrnjewl<----will win

I have this stuff, too.

It's a nice package of items that shows eBay cares about we the sellers. <smile>

Check out this auction before they remove it!! 140011888595

Looks like they all got yanked.................................................................................

I wonder how pushy we can get with them before they start getting personal in their action's?

Well, technically, "fee hike" is keyword spamming since it doesn't actually have anything to do with the actual item listed.

Now, if the item said "fee hike" on it maybe it'd fly. But chances are they'd just find another reason to shut it down.

Thanks Pepe.

I passed the link along to several others plus posted it on some selling boards I belong to.

I like the thinking back and forth that the members on that article are doing.

Insightful!

Peace,
Donna

I just had to relist it.

The fact that eBay cared enough to end all of the protest auctions just made it too hard to resist.

I didn't realize that some Asian market's pay no fees whatsoever. Now that sound's like leveling the playing field! What gives? In essence, we are paying those fees for them.

I've made a few purchases from these markets and beside the extradorinary shipping time, the product's were, like one commentor to the article said, cheap knock-off's.

One thing the author (Rob?) eluded too, that I agree with, is that ebay can do as they want, and as customer's of ebay, we can choose to do the same.

I'm happy that people took the time to respond to the article. The responce was better than the article and served to give a good picture.

Thanks pepedog for posting the link!
