Hello, Claude,
I submit this. You don't understand our feelings because you are a
buyer and not a seller. There is a fundamental inequity between
the way that ebay treats its buyers and sellers. It's not about their
profits, it's not about their greed. It wasn't broke and they fixed it
again and again, squeezing the sellers whenever they could. Just
like every collectible hobby, movie posters would be nowhere were it not
for the network of dealers. DEALERS (and auction houses) still handle
most of the great stuff.
Respectfully,
Kirby

I fully agree. Why don't you all stop complaining about a venue
that increased our hobby tremendously. It is still my number one
place to find posters I want.
Ebay became a public company and during the growth years, the greed
went to their heads, no different from anyone else. that is why the
economy is what it is today. All public companies were interested
in was increasing over the prior year to increase top management's
bonus payments and stock options. The growth need forced changes
and unfortunately their changes were not well thought out.
