Amazon will take over and destroy Ebay and Craigslist.

I am not impressed with the growth potential for their business. They have made wrong choices after wrong choices. The vultures are starting to circle, how long before google comes after them? It is aready easier to search ebay through google than through ebay's terrible search.

people buy and sell more things online when they are broke. Also there is no real competitor to ebay apart from craigslist. Huge potential and growth in the future

I'm usually going to be bearish on companies who don't treat their customers well. IMHO, eBay is in this group because I find their policies to be buyer friendly (this is good) at the expense of the sellers (this is bad). It makes me not want to use eBay for listing my things that I want to sell, because I think the seller protection is inadequate, and they're trying to tell me how to run MY business by placing all these rules and stipulations on what methods of payments I can accept or use. I don't support this at all. In addition, they seem to keep listing their fees, which makes it less economical. I only use eBay as a price guide most of the time now. I pick eBay to "Underperform" until they get it right, by treating their paying customers properly.

eBay, along with their Half site, are the go to websites for many people looking to find great deals, as well as hard to find items. Half's only real competition is Amazon's Marketplace, and as long as Amazon doesn't open up a large auction site they will do great.

I'm in this one for the long term. EBAY has a good niche from other online buying sites in that it is not so reliant on new stuff. It makes money on other's junk (and there is a lot of it) in addition to new stuff. Also, by being a large auctioneer it provides a market pulse on the value of many items. Even the IRS has used their going rates for items as a standard for valuating donated items. Lastly, their seller/buyer's rating system allows one to make large purchases with confidence.

This premier electronic market place is the first choice for Americans looking to buy and sell stuff on the web. Network effects help to keep this true. Since there are many buyers, sellers flock to the company. Since there are many sellers, buyers come looking. Ebay takes a cut of every transaction. The ubiquitous access provided by the internet means their storefront is in almost every home in America and hundreds of millions more around the world. Buy this company and hold for the long term.

Ebay has become seriously anti-seller with its increased fees. Their greed will eventually become their downfall, as sellers will flock to more profitable venues such as Craigslist. Even Amazon will one day give it a run for its money. Ebay was once a company i admired and sold on frequently. Not anymore.

EBAY is a sweet business used daily by million of customers worldwide, no doubt is a good asset to keep in the long term, on the downside the company have furious competition, however it continue to have the edge and continue to be the leader in the market

More and more people are buying online - especially as the children of the 90's become the money-makers of this millenium. Consumers will begin spending again - hopefully soon!!

Once digital telephony is perfected, Skype will be a dominant cometitor. Companies like ClearWire are paving the way!
