 No sympathy for the music industry. Decades of stupidity have caused
 their
 own problems. Overpriced product with most albums consisting of 50%
 filler
 hardly worth listening to.

 "Well Good Grief.....What is wrong with these eBay sellers?
 
 Yahoo is free. No listing fees. No final value fees. Yahoo has a bulk
 loader.
 Your listings actually show up in the search. Your listings also show
 up in
 Yahoo's shopping search. Yahoo has more traffic than eBay stores.
 
 But eBay sellers want to pay $15.95 month store fees. 5 cent listing
 fees.
 10% final value fees. And for all these fees eBay buries their store
 items
 on the back end of eBay and they don't even show up in the search.
 
 Sellers could have it all and not even a small percentage of eBay's
 store sellers
 can grasp the concept of listing and selling for free on Yahoo and
 keeping all their profits."

 "Sellers could have it all, and with so many working so hard to make
 minimum
 wage on eBay, they don't even get it. As simple as taking a day to move
 their listings
 to Yahoo and eBay would be slashing their fees and bending over
 backwards
 trying to get them back. All that potential. What a waste. "

 It's somewhat rare for the typical eBay seller to actually DO
 something.
 You are in a small minority.
 
 I realize in many cases, sellers have immediate financial needs, but
 judging from the completed auctions I seriously doubt the majority
 of sellers a making more than minimum wage for their time (at best).
 
 Reading the pathetic pleading on eBays message boards I wonder
 if any of these people are even capable of understanding what
 an incredible event it would be if they simply turned their backs
 on eBay and moved their listings to Yahoo.
 
 At this point it should be a "no brainer" and is well within their
 reach.
 It would send eBay reeling. And improve the situation for online
 sellers
 for years to come.
 
 Instead of meek lambs, struggling for their survivial on eBay,
 sellers would be saying, "YES, WE DID THAT".
