Nope….that isn’t it……
Need a New Wholey American Venue for Us…..
YAWWNN! A Chinese-owned company that allows their Chinese sellers to steal from US and other sellers in various ways — copying others’ products, selling fakes, getting unfair discounts on shipping at the expense of their US competition, etc.
Nope, not the least bit interested in helping China rule the world and I wish other US sellers would stop helping them. By relying on Chinese suppliers to help produce your own products, you’re basically making a deal with the Devil. It would seem the same goes for keeping sites like eBay, Amazon and Etsy going.
Everyone wants to complain, but very few seem to be willing to do anything about the problems in eCommerce…other than whine. When are Americans going to learn the ways of their recent ancestors? Just 40 years ago, people were fighting for their rights. Now? Everybody just sits there and lets it happen while they waste their time and breath complaining about it all.
