eBay auctions

I keep beating this poor horse's corpse. Vote with your money.

One of the first people to welcome me here was a regular customer of mine. I didn't even know he was a member. I have very loyal customers and I assume that means I have a "fun buying environment."

It's a mass marketplace, you're never going to be able to regulate it into a "fun buying environment" because that means too many different things to too many different people. "Predatory" sellers only succeed if buyers keep rewarding them. If I feel someone is predatory I simply don't buy from them. I have a shit list of guys who sell counterfeits as reprints, rest assured I will never do business with them, and yes Ebay should in fact enforce rules they have in place, THAT may help it feel more "fun", but I can't imagine making rules to solve most of the problems people are discussing here. If you go to the mall you have a choice between Kohl's and Nordstrom's. You may even find the identical item in both stores at widely different prices, does that mean the mall needs to pass rules make Nordstrom's more "fun"?
