I had to wonder why sales dropped. Not a single half.com sale since Sept 25th--I average about 7 to 10 a week. One look at the home page for Half. Right up top eBay puts an AFA siphon. Yeah Yeah!! It's an eBay company, but how are half sellers to make money against free shipping on A4A?
So with little or no sales on eBay and Half, what does the tough seller do when the going gets tough? He goes shopping. eBay was hawking AFA in Gurnee Mills this weekend. They were giving out eBay ballons. Not surprising since they specialize in hot air!!!!
Poor Meg and Pierre. They could fund AFA's goal amount from their personal stash of eBay stock without breaking a sweat but they want it from their sellers' hides. Can you say hypocrisy?
No good deed goes without undoing when eBay is running it.
