Back In Time - eBay Would Like Your Input

eBay sends out surveys to gather data to justify their future plans. And we get a lot of them.

We received yesterday (7/6/2009) the survey email below (personal information edited out). And it told us a great deal about how organized eBay is today.

The email is dated "From eBay Research Wed Jun 17 21:24:51 2009"

"Tell me Doctor, where are we going this time? Is this the 50's or 1999?"

Perhaps we can return to 2005, 2003, 2001 or even 1999! And have a happier, healthier and more successful buying and selling environment. Jul-07-09 14:17:48 PDT
