Geez, I'm tired of getting pop ups every time I look at something to bid on! Like a banner wasn't enough, they got to hit you again as you try to leave an auction page.
I bet I'm not the only one, either. Wonder how many bidders get so turned off by this, they're going elsewhere to get away from it?

THEY SUCK! And I notice the back button has an extra couple of seconds added to how long it appears. What a pain in the butt.

I think if you talk to ebay about it, you should call them "page-back banner flashes" which is the best description I can think of. I believe ebay does not impose pop-ups (a window which has to be closed) on us. But they do need to do something about the 'pbbf's !

Regardless of what you call them, they are disturbing. Maybe I'm nitpicky, but this threw me off from searching for items to bid on. They're almost as bad as "flashers."

I absolutely agree with you. I hate them. They shouldn't happen. BUT if we complain to ebay about pop-ups, that won't help this situation. I was just trying to help make your complaints to ebay more meaningful.
