Is the eBay way going away?

Is the eBay way going away? Posted on August 22, 20083 Comments

According to this article in the New York Times, eBay is going to be angling more toward the “Buy it Now” method than the auction way of selling things.

I can’t decide if this is a good thing or a bad thing. For buyers, auctions are sometimes a way of finding things on the cheap but having to wait out an auction is obnoxious. For sellers, if demand>supply, then the auction method is probably favorable.

Random eBay aside: I love the old “Do it eBay” commercial spots.

  1. I think I’m the only person left who hasn’t used eBay. I don’t know how it happened, I just never have.

  2. I’ve haven’t used eBay either!!

    I love this commercial too. I totally remember it.

  3. I don’t Ebay very much because I don’t like PayPal. I think the buy it now feature is good because with the patience of a two year old, I think I might die if I wait longer!
