    I've had some really great results with eBay on certain sites. It converts pretty well, but it really depends on how expensive of a product your site discusses. If you promote eBay and AdSense at the same time, it can be an explosive combination.

    Awesome to hear ! Glad eBay ads have been treating you well. I'm looking forward to a long partnership with them as I think that may fill a much needed void. No doubt google will try something similar.

    I give them a year.

    I don't know if you'll be able to use eBay's contextual service alongside AdSense, but I just either add the eBay links by hand or via a PHP script I wrote. I don't plan on using eBays contextual ad network because I don't want to give up the AdSense money, plus my homemade eBay ads tend to get A LOT more clicks than AdSense or any other text-based contextual ad system.

    You cant mix any other contextual ads with adsense, but they can be on separate pages. On pages that doesnt convert adsense well, ebay might work!
