Keep up the good work. But don't hold your breath waiting for the filthy, lying thieves at eBay to notice or take action; you'll suffocate first. The only thing that ever gets eBay's attention is committed legal action from bureaucracies in California. Unless and until there's a world agreement on Internet regulation, nothing will change. And eBay has demonstrated their arrogance with the rest of the world for the last ten years.

1. eBay newest feature is the eliminating of shill bid enforcement. By hiding bidders’ identities, sellers, their friends and family can now confidently bid on their own sales, thus increasing eBay’s profits.

2. Fraud tolerance at eBay is measured by profitability.

3. Only former members complain. The rest are too scared.

4. The best way to collect on an overdue account is to stop that account from making money. This is especially true when they don’t have any money because they are not likely to send any until they do.

5. We constantly create new ways to improve customer service by adding polite, personal introductions to irrelevant canned auto-responses.

6. Satisfied eBay customers are the ones who give up.

7. We change policies every time we are forced by law to do so.

8. Indifference reduces worry.

9. When you have no competition, you are always state-of-the-art.

10. We are the best at what we do and nobody else is us.
11. Customer service is all we expect from our customers.

12. We enable you to make money for us.

13. It was innovation that enabled our complacency.

14. Inefficiency is overcome by raising prices.

15. Wherever there is disease, there is eBay. The Internet has no boundaries.

16. If there is any way we can help you, please do not let us know. We have neither the time, interest or budget.

17. Trying to initiate contact with Customer Support will only make matters worse. That is one of the many features that make eBay special.

18. Everyone at eBay is empowered to do what we say and never what we demand from our users.

19. The secret to our success is to keep the same stuff rotating from hand to hand. It eliminates the need for new manufacturing.

20. Because of eBay, the United States Post Office is busier than ever before, despite a bankrupt economy. That saves high-paying government jobs.

21. Our highly trained Customer Service Team is now able to create custom introductions to our canned responses. Experience shows that planting roses in manure always produces a better crop.

22. Your business is our business. Your money is our money. Your pocket is our pocket. Your satisfaction, success or home-based business is not part of this equation.

23. We do not make mistakes, therefore we cannot offer apologies. Any apparent mistakes did not happen and could not happen. Therefore, calling a mistake to our attention is pointless because it could not have happened and did not happen at eBay.

24. Search until you find something you won’t be able to afford. Then put it on your “watch list”. This keeps the seller optimistic while learning to adjust to disappointing prices.

25. eBay has a seductive new pricing structure that reduces your cost on cheap features and multiplies fees on all others. It all comes into our pockets.

26. What you see as inefficiency is the actual reason we have raised our fees.

27. eBay now announces new rule changes every week, so read the fine print, as it will not be there when you try to find it later.

28. Due to rising costs for something somewhere, our fees keep rising so we can claim to provide even better customer service.

29. eBay does not allow customer abuse that we don’t originate.

30. Here at eBay we are committed to the principle of valuing our customer as our enemy.

31. If you make an error, we will enhance it. If we make an error, it’s your responsibility. This is how eBay works.

32. eBay is always perfect and never makes misteaks.

33. If you are behind in your eBay fees, we promise to do everything in our power to stop you from making money so we can kick you off. This abuse reinforces the power we have over our users, since we have no leverage otherwise.

34. Following eBay’s Official customer service “drill down” will direct members into thirteen wrong turns and one dead-end, with answers to questions no one asked. This is what keeps shopping on eBay fun.

35. Our Customer Service Representatives are trained to politely invite our members to take a trip to hell. eBay sees no purpose in being rude.

36. All policies at eBay are in place for profit. The doctrines of fair trade or democracy have no influence on our ebb-and-flow of changing policies.

37. Changing the light to green on fraud gives a fresh perspective without eliminating it. There is a great deal of operational stability in this approach.

38. In eBay’s point of view, good practices are those that follow our points of view.

40. Our actual point of view is a closely held secret, as are all of eBay’s advanced weapons of self-destruction.

41. Every eBay policy is there for a reason. It m

ay not make sense to our members, but there is always a financial motive for it.

42. To genuinely improve anything upsets eBay’s profit structure.

43. To better fulfill your opportunities at eBay and understand your obligations, you are encouraged to read our new Terms of Service, entitled: Communist Economics and eBay’s Profits. Like eBay itself, they are not negotiable.

44. As en eBay employee, stay in your box and trust your Leadership Team to do the right thing when problems arise.

45. Keeping quiet and learning the value of the ‘delete’ key is your path to promotion and increased fringe benefits.

46. Due to recent fee structure abuses, there are now more than 1,000,000 openings for new members.

47. Press Release Template:
“The media got it all wrong…!” (Insert made-up details; be creative.)

48. Is there anything else we can help you with? Thanks for using eBay!

49. Knowing what Meg Whitman did for eBay, are you sure you want to vote Meg Whitman in as California’s NEXT governor?

50. Can 12 Million California ex-eBay users all be wrong?

Don't you just love eBay's famous spin words - "partners", "ensure", "relationship", "committed",
"improved platforms" and other promissory nonsense? (Oh, did I forget "global"?) If they really and truly gave a damn about anyone but themselves, these great changes would have happened years ago. Nothing about eBay will ever be deemed a work in progress.

Hi Jason

Good post and it’s a shame to see such good work all chopped up so that it will fit on the page so maybe you would allow me to move your post to it’s own page so that you get the credit you deserve.

Best regards
