    The Positive Power of Competition
    I left my mobile telephone in a taxi and went sheepishly to buy a replacement. The people at the telephone company were patient as I selected a new mobile phone.One week later I realized I had chosen a new model a bit too big for my liking. I tried to sell my (almost new) phone at a steep discount to someone else, but found no one eager to buy.I called the telephone company to ask wher
    Ebay – You either love it or hate it. Count me in the latter group. Ebay is the devil! My experience with Ebay was most unfortunate. I’m assuming it isn’t the norm or else Ebay would not be as popular as it is world-wide.

    How did I become an Ebay hater? Simple. I tried to sell a diamond ring on their site. I signed up for a one time deal. I believe it was for a month and I was led to believe that if the ring didn’t sell after a month, that was it, no more obligation to me.

    Somehow I also got duped into listing the ring in two categories, not just for a diamond. I believe it was their suggestion that I could sell it more easily and quickly if I listed it in another category. So I did. I also paid the extra money for the extra listing.

    Imagine my surprise when a month later they started billing me for $16.00 per month. For what? The ring didn’t sell. I had already paid them their upfront fees.

    Have you ever tried contacting Ebay to complain about their service? I found this to be impossible. Each time I tried to close my Ebay account I would receive an email on how to delete my PayPal account. Say what? I want my PayPal account, I need my PayPal account. What I don’t want is an Ebay account.

    I emailed Ebay many times during the course of about six weeks. I would never get a personal response to my problem, just the usual how to delete my PayPal account.

    Stop Complaining and Make a Change
    I am going to write something that may not be popular, but if it offends you in anyway, it probably means that I’m writing this for you. I’m writing this to help you…not to criticize or belittle you. I want every entrepreneur to continue to grow throughout his online career and sometimes when we don’t accept change…we stop growing. I don’t want that to happen to you.Lately, I’ve seen a lot of

    I finally contacted my credit card company, explained the problem to them and they put the gears in motion to get me divorced from them! The credit card company did give me the telephone number to contact Ebay in the meantime. Finally, success! I will be able to speak to a real live person and explain the dilemma and get extricated from this whole mess.

    So I called the phone number for Ebay that my credit card company gave me. Tremulously, I waited on the line as the phone rang. At last a human voice! Actually a human voice recording!! The voice gave me a lot of options on who to contact to resolve my problem. Unfortunately, every option involved logging on to the worldwide web and…you guessed it…contacting them by email!

    They say the definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result. I may be a lot of things but one thing I am not, is insane so I wasn’t going to try to contact them by email again.

    Right now I’m waiting to hear from my credit card company, to see if they had any better success than me. Somehow I doubt they will. It seems once Ebay gets its teeth into you, there’s no letting go. I always thought they had so many members because of their great service. Ha! Now I know. It’s because they won’t let you out of their clutches.
