Ebay Global Boycott Planned (?)

.....from a blog titled Boycott Ebay posted on 3/21...

Ebay is a Monopoly that doesn't give a damn!

This is a GLOBAL BOYCOTT to get ebay to reduce their fees (definitive percentage reduction to be decided) for the benefit of ALL Buyers and Sellers.

I don't know about you but I'm getting sick and tired of being ripped off by Internet Monopolies like Ebay. Their attitude sucks. Their fees suck. And now their service is beginning to suck.

Without the buyers and sellers who make up the ebay community, there simply wouldn't be an ebay. So if the current nonchalant attitude prevails then we could be witnessing the beginning of the end for the e-Monolith. It's end would of course be fine as long as we have an alternative that isn't out to shaft us at every turn.

But until such time as there is a credible alternative, we need to take matters into our own hands. This is about empowerment. It's about the people taking control of their own destiny. If we act as a collective voice we can take power away from the Monopolies and hand it back to the people. If we sit back and do nothing, then they win and we are beaten into submission.
