Now Companies Suing eBay For Giving Others Better Listings

Remember all those lawsuits against Google by people who didn't like how Google listed them (i.e., they felt that Google had them too far down the rankings)? Well, it appears that some similar lawsuits are being filed against eBay. One jewelry sales company, Windsor Auctions, felt that it should have been making more money via eBay and sued the company after realizing that a competitor was using tools eBay provided it to get better listings. Windsor mostly relied on a depression-era law that tried to stop big companies from engaging in predatory sales practices (using its marketing muscle to force suppliers to give it better deals). As Eric Goldman points out in the link above, the law makes almost no sense today (and it's questionable if it ever did).

Boost Your Business with an eBay Store

If your items are in demand, you will certainly sell out due to eBay's amazing traffic levels! As you sell more product you can grow your listings and business.

Ebay Auction Photos to show an item that is for sale

Of all the factors that contribute to how well an item will sell during an auction period, some of the most basic, yet often times overlooked aspects of eBay listings are the photos that a seller chooses to use to show an item that is for sale. It would seem obvious that the photos of an item offered for sale would be important. Even so, as you look through the thousands of listings for auctions being held on any given day, you will see photo after photo that are rough, blurry, haphazard, goofy, and sometimes, not even a picture of the item being sold or any item that is even similar.

RBC Capital Markets Corp reiterates eBay Inc. at 'sector perform'

The analyst wrote in a research report: "Our latest data shows core conversion rates showing a modest bounce off the bottom after seeing significant declines through May. As before, the number of items sold has remained relatively steady while the number of listings has increased dramatically, particularly in the more head-of-the-curve product segments like books/media/video and consumer electronics. Our channel checks indicate that while Buy.com may be one of the first large e-tailers to start listing products on what we believe is a discounted take-rate, it will not be the last, as similar deals seem pending. While this may be of benefit to listings, we fear that eBay may be displacing high rent tenants (existing PowerSellers) with lower rent larger e-tailers.
