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.
