I love the concept, and don't respect the people running it with the
policies, distortions, and outright lies they seem comfortable with.
Ebay has its uses, but the main one is to allow people who are either
ignorant of or are too lazy to work with other distribution channels.
Hmmm, maybe most of us :).
I've gotten some great deals there but for the most part, there is too
much "noise". I've sold some stuff at good prices there, but my belief
is that it is for the most part, really only of value for higher end
products ... say $100 plus.

Maybe we can have a poll to see who likes ebay , who hates ebay, and who
aren't sure :)
Personally I like it, while it can drive up prices for things it has also
caused others to auction them instead of dumping them.
Greed has saved many systems that would otherwise be scrapped. Of course
there are others that decide to part something out trying maximize the
all-mighty dollar.
