My Take
Why the eBay Scream?
I wrote the blog post below about a week and half ago. I finally felt like posting it after responding to a blog post over at Senseless Sellers.
Here’s my response to that post on Senseless Seller’s blog.
Can you believe there are “successful” eBay sellers with attitudes like this one? What a complete disgrace to the reputation of what a seller, whether on eBay or anywhere else, should be! Could you imagine walking into Walmart or any other “successful” retailer and having them treat you this way. “Get your facts straight or get out”. What a joke!

eBay “Touchy-Feely” Days Are Over
“The elimination of true mutual feedback completely changes the culture of eBay for the worse.”
This is a quote taken from an experienced eBay seller’s newsletter in response to eBay feedback changes announced recently.
This eBay seller, author and entrepreneur is far more experienced with eBay and it’s history than I am and his opinion is one that I value. Is he right? My opinion would take far to long to fully explain so I’ll just say, “Yes and No.” What I do know is that gone are the days an eBay seller can leverage “whether or not” to issue positive eBay feedback based upon how their eBay customer, who has already paid, “treats” them.

eBays New Best Match Search Tool
Hmmmm, this is interesting. Just finished reading a couple of excellent posts over at Auction Insights explaining eBay’s new “Best Match” search option currently being tested in a few select eBay categories.
I highly recommend reading these articles, as if the new “search by relevance” criteria is adopted as the default search method across all categories on eBay, it constitutes a major change significantly effecting both the buying and selling experience on eBay.
If I was a betting man, I’d bet we best get ready for “Best Match”, cause it’s here to stay.

Searching For Bobby Fischer
I’m no collector but if I was I would be on eBay searching for Bobby Fischer. It’s a sad commentary but death does wonders for the value of collectibles.
I was no fan of Bobby Fischer’s politics or his wacky view of the world, but a part of me died when I heard the news he passed away this past Thursday. It seems like yesterday I was glued to news reports coming out of ReykjavÃk, Iceland telling about his world chess championship match with Boris Spassky back in July of 1972.

What is Normal Blogging?
Very interesting read on what is “Normal Blogging”. These cancer bloggers are adding real value to other cancel patients living with this curse. Bully for them!! This is real courage!!
And a reminder for each of us to help those who need it most and to live each day to its fullest.

Our Illusive Companion
Curiosity and exploration are character traits that don’t need coaxing from me. This dynamic duo of a skill set is constantly bubbling to the surface of who I am and plays a major role in the derailment of my immediate financial targeting.
At the very heart of the man or woman pre-disposed to exploration is the repelling of things as they are and the natural gravitation toward innovation and the unknown.

“Watch me Daddy!!!!!!, Watch Me!!!!!!
This online marketing stuff is tricky business for passionate people like me! I have turned the key, finally ignited my online marketing engine and am selling my eBay adventure, and myself in general, in a focused, overt but “Step Selling” method.
“Step Selling” is an intelligent method of marketing or selling I can endorse fully, as it feeds your own excitement to others in bits and pieces so they can swallow your excitement without gagging.
