If Donajoke gets fired from ebay, he will walk away with more money than if he completes his contract; that's how his deal was structured.
I can't imagine hiring someone and telling them that if you run my company into the ground and I have to fire you, I'll pay you more than if you run it well...that's insane.
He's a joke. He's never sold a single thing on ebay and has no idea how it works.
All of his grand plans have failed.
All that he accomplished is to open the door for Craiglists and others to move in and take market share.
Sellers are driving customers they find on ebay away from ebay for future sales.
Even Auctiva sees this happening and is beginning to capitalize on it by offering non ebay shopping sites for sellers.
The deal ebay struck with Buy.com was a disaster; free listings plus 1.5% final value.
In return for that sweetheart deal, Buy drives all of the customers it finds on ebay to Buy.com
I bought a small item from Buy at ebay just to see how it would go.
Every single day (3 months now) from that point on I get an email with the current great deals available at Buy.com....no mention of ebay..Donajoke was suckered....
