    As you all may know, sellers on Ebay are having a bit of a problem with the new policies.

    Their listings have gone down by a bit- http://www.powersellersunite.com/auctionsitewatch.php

    There is supposed to be a boycott from today to the 25th.

    What do you think will be the result?

    Truthfully, I think it is a good way to state what they want to say but I doubt it will effect ebay.

    I don't think it will hurt ebay at all.

    Everyone will still list there as I do because that's where the traffic is.

    Some ebayers are just cold about it. There must be a united stand for this issue.

    I didn't even know that the sellers were boycotting! I haven't sold anything in a long time, but if everyone else is boycotting this would be a good time to go and list some stuff for sale! ;)

    I think it suits well for those who do not take part in
    the strike as then their listings get exposed more
    due to lesser sellers.

    It's a chicken and egg thing really...

    Before it even puts a dent on ebay, it would need at least 3/4 of the sellers boycotting. I use craigslist myself.
