ebaY PayPal buyout, in an article in the Deal, it was reported that
they believe the U.S. Justice Department will expand its antitrust
investigation into ebaY's buyout of PayPal.   The DOJ review is
focusing on whether the transaction would hurt small
businesses and other payment processors. If PayPal users
who are troubled by this buyout, please make sure you send
your concerns to the DOJ and FTC. A loud and vociferous
objection, should at least get some restrictions put in place to
control what access ebaY has to past records, and limit what
ways ebaY can force PayPal down their customers throats. This
is one time that individuals can make a REAL difference in an
important outcome in this industry. Don't forget to contact your
Senators and Congressional Representatives also. The more
concern expressed the more likely protections will be enforced
as part of the deal.

ebaY - On 11 Aug at 10:44:04 PT users reported getting
numerous page resets on cgi5 preventing listing. At 10:54:51 PT
sellers continued to note they were not receiving relist refunds,
the 11th day of the problem.   At 11:00:01 PT ebaY reported there
were intermittent listing problems from 10:39 PT to 10:50 PT. At
18:38:19 PT users reported not being able to open auction items
preventing bidding. This problem lasted until 18:51:20 PT. At
19:24:12 PT sellers reported they could not upload their Mister
Lister collections.

On 12 Aug at 06:52:17 PT sellers reported for the 12th day, that
they were not receiving relist credit.   At 06:52:37 PT users
reported that access to the threaded boards was down. At
06:57:07 PT users reported the threaded boards were
accessible but slow.   At 20:12:30 PT sellers could not change
their credit card on their accounts. At 20:25:34 PT users
continued to report more problems with changing their credit
card info. At   20:46:45 PT ebaY posted that the ability to pay an
ebaY account with a credit card or add a credit card was down
from 19:14 PT to 19:42 PT, and from 19:55 PT to 20:40 PT.

On 13 Aug sellers reported the 13th day of no relist refunds.
Hotmail account holders also reported they were, once again,
not getting ebaY emails. This ebaY Hotmail problem has been
an intermittent reoccurrence for several months, despite the
personal attention Meg Whitman requested and allegedly
received from Microsoft's Steve Balmer. Obviously, it was the
same kind of customer service ebaY gives its customers.

On 14 Aug at 08:59:03 PT sellers reported Buy It Now items that
were sold were not reflecting their sold status and were still
available for purchase. At 18:31:33 PT users reported no access
notices and the entire ebaY site crashing. This only lasted for a
few moments.

On 15 Aug at 05:41:54 PT, ebaY reported that listings in
categories were updating even more slowly than usual. At
07:03:04 PT ebaY posted that listings in categories were
updating more slowly than usual from 00:00 PT and 07:00 PT,
causing listings to not show in categories.   At 08:25:40 PT users
reported items in the collectibles categories were showing as
"unavailable". At 08:38:58 PT Computer items joined those
showing as unavailable. At 08:39:49 PT users reported they
could not search or bid on items, "This function is currently
unavailable" messages. At 08:36:44 PT ebaY posted that
Collectibles categories were down from 8:20 PT to 8:30 PT, as
usual users reported differently.   At 08:48:13 PT users continued
to report site problems with item access. At 13:34:55 PT a seller
reported getting 54 out of 900 end of item notices for items
ending the previous day. At 14:04:07 PT users reported they
could not revise store items, as ebaY was no longer recognizing
the seller At 14:24:06 PT users reported they could not log into
the threaded message boards. At 14:44:16 PT sellers continued
to report the system not recognizing them. At 23:56:09 PT
sellers reported they could not sign in, that SYI2.0 was not
working and that the seller could not revise listings.

On 16 Aug ebaY took the system down for maintenance, and
though they said it was going to be from 01:00 PT until 03:00 PT,
the session appeared to be for an abbreviated period. At
04:21:11 PT sellers posted that a 5 cent surcharge was now
showing up on all relists and revisions made by sellers using
the old listing form.   On further investigation, this charge was not
showing up on seller's accounts yet.   At 07:21:23 PT users
reported problems with search. At 11:58:54 PT after being
contacted by the main stream media on the surcharge issue,
ebaY finally posted a notice on the SAB about it. They said,
"Members using Sell Your Item 1.0 to list or relist 3-, 5- or 7-day
auction-style listings are receiving a message stating that there
is a five-cent surcharge for this type of listing. This message is in
error, and there is no surcharge for 3-, 5- or 7-day auction-style
listings. Seller accounts are not being charged this extra fee."   
ebaY also told CNET that, "...there are no plans to institute such
a fee." ebaY pinks asked about this said they had not been
notified of any such fee. Since additions in coding like this one
do not happen by accident, ebaY is obviously lying again, but it is
not yet possible to discern about what. At 13:21:29 PT ebaY
posted that users were having trouble accessing the time left
feature on search. At 16:57:51 PT, ebaY again posted about the
surcharge appearing on relists when using the old listing form.
ebaY said that the problem occurred from 03:00 PT to 16:29 PT.   
At 19:07:53 PT users reported the bidder block page was
missing. When trying to access the page they received
messages that said, "We could not locate the page you
requested. We are sorry, but the file you requested has moved or
does not exist on our system. Please check the Site Map or the
Home Page for the new location of the file you seek."   At
20:27:37 PT sellers reported problems with posting images
using ebaY iPix.

On 17 Aug at 09:34:32 PT sellers reported that the Checkout
system was not functioning. The Checkout blocks were missing
from auction pages and sellers were not able to send invoices
through the system. At 10:58:09 PT sellers reported problems
with Mister Lister. At 23:34:57 PT sellers again reported
problems adding to store items descriptions.

On 18 Aug 10:52:10 PT users reported they were not able to
save Watch items in their My ebaY pages.

TAG STRONGLY recommends that, if a seller feels that any of
the ebaY outages and glitches appears to have negatively
impacted the sale of any of their auctions or listings of any type,
request refunds. Don't pay for service if you don't receive it.

TO REQUEST REFUNDS from ebaY go to
http://www.auctionguild.com/generic.html?pid=33
Don't take NO for an answer; keep requesting until you get them.
http://www.auctionguild.com/generic.html?pid=17
If you don't get your refunds complain to the BBB Online at
http://www.bbbsilicon.org/index.htm
And also file a complaint with the FTC
https://www.ftc.gov/ftc/complaint.htm

-----------
Pink Quote of the Day I - On 28 Jul at 22:24 PT, when asked
about the ebaY powerseller health insurance program,
Gianni@ebaY said, "... eBay is still working on the Powerseller's
Insurance program. Please be sure to check the Announcement
Board for any updates and the announcement on a decision
about the program. " TAG wonders what "a decision about the
program" means.

PQOD II - On 18 Aug, when asked about User ID hijacking,
during the live chat with the head of ebaY Trust and Safety, Rob
Chestnut, (ro-@ebay.com) said, "Some time ago we made the
decision that a user could not use their email address as a user
ID, in part to deal with this exact problem. We are encouraging all
users who have their email address as part of their user ID to
change their ID. We have considered making such a change, but
have been reluctant to impose it on long-time users who have
invested so much in their eBay identity. " TAG finds it a shame
that the primary person at ebaY in charge of trust and safety did
nothing but provide PR answers and lies. Identity hijacking has
nothing to do with email addys as User IDs, and the only reason
for ebaY banning such IDs is to prevent someone from being
able to get in touch with another user without going through
ebaY. ebaY is facilitating User ID hijacking because they are
greedy. To solve the biggest part of the hijacking problem all
they would need to do would be to lock login after a person tries
to login more than a certain number of times (5 or 10). The
problem is that ebaY would have to provide 24/7 customer
service, so that if a legitimate user got their account locked, there
would be someone at ebaY to unlock it instantly. ebaY is not
about to spend money on customer support, as they are much
too busy trying to train up their Gestapo forces to keep dissent
and fraud reporting off their chat boards.     For the rest of the
chat with Rob, go to -

-----------
Board Post of the Day I - In a discussion about ebaY
announcements about their outages, marginally*marginal on 15
Aug at 08:52:39 PT said, "Oh, I can see it now... "The DNF subset
of the eBay community might possibly may be experiencing
intermittent non-contiguous occasional issues with some -- but
not most -- of the eBay site. The home page is up, however, you
may have to know the item number of what it is you are
searching for to find it -- and even then, it may not show up. Or it
could. It depends on what subset of the eBay superset you are
in. Rest assured we are working tirelessly day and night to
resolve the issues. Thank you for your patience. Regards, eBay."
And on 17 Aug at 07:33:43 PT in a answer to a user about how to
protest about SY2.0 to ebaY, "This is the place where we
discuss how new features have broken the system and rant to
have eBay put it back the way it was, and LEAVE STUFF ALONE.
Of course, they never listen, and eBay becomes more complex,
convoluted, un-navigable, counterintuitive, and generally a motley
assortment of dysfunctional patches on shoddy repairs to the
buggy changes to the revised edits of the original functional
software."

BPOD II - When asked why ebaY would not allow sellers to
chose which listing form they could use, novelty said on 15 Aug
at 09:18:58 PT, "Why not let sellers have the freedom to decide?
...This is not an applicable part of the fascism doctrine. Simply
suggesting just an act of civility could cause you to be flogged,
drawn and quartered. Please refrain from thinking your rights are
important to the workings of eBay inc."

-----------
And talking about the ebaY Gestapo, ebaY has decided that they
no longer want users warning other users about fraudulent
escrow sites. ebaY has now gagged all mention, and removed
all threads that investigated and listed all fraudulent escrow
sites on the ebaY escrow board.   The primary mover and shaker
in these investigations, fenton.smith, said, "I've recently been
informed that I'm prohibited from posting information on the
scams on this board. I'll be looking for an alternative method of
making this information available. For now, all I can do is put the
scam sites in my list and send the reports to the person who
asked about them. Also, be aware that we can no longer
mention the site name in the headline of posts on this board.
Thus, due to eBay rules, I am prevented from offering the kind of
service that I've offered in the past." TAG wants to know what the
escrow board is for? A thread on the subject (if ebaY has not
removed it) -

-----------
Though as of yet not officially posted on the site and not yet
appearing on the deadbeat bidder pages, during the live chat
Rob Chestnut announced that ebaY has implemented a change
to the non paying bidder program. All non paying bidder (NPB)
warnings will expire after 18 months.   TAG will be interested to
see how this gets implemented. Of course, since ebaY profits
from deadbeats, they are obviously not going to do anything to
eliminate deadbeats from their site. The deadbeat buyer
problem is an easy to solve situation. ebaY should require all
buyers to fund an account and then charge to buyers who are
deadbeats, the final value fees and listing fees incurred by the
seller and then return the same to the seller. If ebaY did this, the
deadbeats would drop to a small fraction of their current
numbers. But if ebaY did this, they would lose out on all the
revenue they are now unethically getting out of sellers, the relist
fees and unclaimed final value fees.
http://pages.ebay.com/event/robc/index.html
As of this printing, ebaY says in the current NPB program,
"Warnings will remain on your record until they are successfully
appealed."   Current NPB program is at -

-----------
ebaY is facing a serious patent infringement suit in November.
Thomas G. Woolston, and his company MercExchange has had
online auction system patents since Apr 1995, 6 months before
Pierre Omidyar started Auction Web that later became ebaY, and
3 years before ebaY filed its first patent. Mr Woolston has
already been successful in a suit against GoTo.com receiving an
undisclosed settlement plus a licensing agreement from
GoTo.Com. He is once again pursuing what he sees as his
rights, against ebaY, in the same court. Several rulings have
been made on this case, so far in Mr Woolstons favor.

ebaY is arguing that their system is person to person whereas
Mr Woolston's has an intermediary. ebaY is arguing the
definitions of the words in the patents to try to show there are
differences between their systems and those patented by Mr
Woolston.

TAG would be interested in the answer to some questions this
all brings to mind, and those are why didn't Pierre file patents on
his person to person auction idea in 1995, and was it because
he had an invention agreement with General Magic, so they
would have been the owner of the "invention" that was to become
ebaY?

ebaY insiders are cashing out stock at and ever increasing rate.
In a press release sent to TAG, this insider trading information
was compiled -

"Ebay Officers Dump Stock Valued at $852.4 Million
San Diego, CA - With the stock market being manipulated
recently, new information sheds light on the volatile position of
publicly traded Ebay stock. The President and Chief Executive
Officer of the Internet auction site, eBay.com; Margaret C.
Whitman has been dumping stock faster than Ken Lay at Enron.
Between December 19, 2001 and May 8, 2002, Ms. Whitman has
sold-off 13,049,536 shares of stock. At $56 a share, that comes
to more than $730 million. Ms. Whitman has a 6% ownership in
the company. This information can be verified at
http://biz.yahoo.com/t/e/ebay.html. Other officers in the company
are just as greedy. The founder and Chairman, Pierre Omidyar
has sold off 443,800 shares since 11-21, netting him a healthy
$24.85 million. The Chief Financial Officer, Rajiv Dutta has sold
180,000 shares making him a cool $10.08 million. Maynard
Webb, the Chief Operating Officer has sold off 436,600 shares
netting him $24.44 million. General Counsel, Michael R.
Jacobson has dumped 144,998 shares making him $8.119
million – not bad for a hungry young lawyer. Jeff Jordan, a
Senior Vice President and General Manager has dumped 199,992 shares of
stock valued at $11.19 million. Senior Vice President of Ebay
International, Matthew J. Bannick has sold 144,998 shares netting him a
cool $8.119 million. And finally, a
“Beneficial Owner,” Jeffrey Skoll dumped 622,000 shares of
stock in two days in April netting him a whopping $32.9 million. "

-----------
ebaY announced they are making changes to Checkout and
ebaY Billpoint Payments, over the next few weeks. To see
details go to -
http://pages.ebay.com/services/payments/faqs.html

-----------
ebaY has finally implemented the changes in how the ending
time of a listing is displayed in Search and Listings results.
Instead of the ending time, "Ends PDT/PST", with the date and
military time in the Pacific Time Zone that the listing will end,
ebaY will now "Time Left", with the amount of time left in the
listing displayed in hours and minutes, rather than the specific
hour of the day.

Users who prefer to view Search and Listings results by "Ends
PDT/PST" can change the setting from the "Show Only" box in the
left-hand navigation bar. Once the default is set to "Ends
PDT/PST", it will remain that way for the user. Users need to set
the default for Search and Listings results separately.

TAG applauds the fact that ebaY is allowing users choice in this
matter. ebaY should make the fact of that choice more intuitive
and more obvious.

-----------
ebaY will hold a workshop on "How to Choose, Prepare and List
Clothing For Sale on ebaY." This workshop will be held on Tue
20 Aug from 19:00 PT to 21:00 PT.
