Ebay, constantly competing against its own sellers by proxy of big brands.Things like this prove Wenig to be a liar, and as such, should face investigation for lying to investors.
Agreed. Wenig keeps saying they don’t compete against their sellers “unlike Amazon”. The thing is though that Amazon manufactures their own items and purchases their own inventory to re-sell. eBay does none of that. They own nothing. Instead they promote big brands, large sellers, Chinese sellers over everything else to push smaller and casual sellers down. Wenig is a proven liar. All one needs to do is read transcripts of earnings reports and shareholder meetings. It’s all complete BS. Who will be the next “Big Brand” victim of eBay after they screwed over both Hasbro and Reebok in the last couple months?
