This week, I threw an informal survey question out on Twitter and Facebook, “What do you dislike most about eBay?” I’ve received several replies. Today’s reply is from Debbie, who owns Knowledge Tree Bookstore.

Debbie wrote, “Hmmmm you caught my eye with this question. I have to say I am so much in love with working eBay and learning more everyday. At the same time there is something for everyone to work on, even eBay, so I think what I dislike most about eBay is my nervousness that they will become like an Amazon and the little people selling will be thrown away and bigger sellers will rule the arket. I have read some Skip McGrath articles on this and I am concerned that eBay will change into another typical corporation. When I went to Chicago eBay Live I found I really liked the corporation, how they listen to us, how they make changes because of what we say and struggle with. So my dislike really is my concern if they will stay this way or become just another one of the bunch.

I also dislike that I can’t take paper payments starting in October, but I am over it and am willing to move with eBay as they grow. I have not once had a problem (with paper payments) and have a lot of people who buy my books pay with money orders – some older people who don’t use the computer much. I think I will keep doing business that way with them if I can.

Other than that I really love what I do. I feel a bit overwhelmed some days and wish I had some help haha. Being an at home mom and doing eBay is a blessing.”

Thanks for your contribution, Debbie. So, readers, what are your thoughts? What do you dislike most about eBay and how do you deal with it?
