Gaze Into Your Crystal Balls
« on: April 20, 2010, 06:37:32 PM »
as you might aware eBay will be posting it's first quarter results is just a day or so

what do predict John Donahoe will say after the announcement


I predict he will boast about the surge in people that now use paypal on ebay ...... that (choose a number that sounds a lot) people are now using mobile paypal payments for eBay and non eBay

he'll go on to say that traffic decline is because of the GFC but more planned changes on eBay will help boast buyer confidence

what do your balls say ???

Wait, wait... I must first of all buy a genuine original rare fantastic crystal ball found by accident in someone's attic, listed on eBay by a seller who has - coincidentally - found quite a few other equally genuine original rare fantastic crystal balls.

If I were to attempt to script a response, I think my brains would melt.... Come to think of it, that might just be what is needed for the job!

He'll try making out that he can do this every time: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fHk3KEGF5mI



But, whatever he regurgitates, be sure to have your GIFs at the ready...  Head slapping and head shaking and other depictions of incredulity - because you're gonna feel like this guy: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7_KIzbktgJk

Well I've scratched my Crystal Balls but can't find any clear messages, kind of like searching now on eBay.

Not sure if he'll talk about:
How eBay traffic continues to decline whereas Amazon, Craigslist, etsy, Rubylane etc are still experiencing huge growth
How eBay members love Best Match
How eBay AU buyers can now find more products from Australian sellers
How the eBay site has been glitch-free for the last quarter
How eBay messages all get to their destination - after-all, communication is the key with online trading
How eBay Customer Service has improved with Live Help who give relevant, informative and helpful answers to any eBay question

I'm sure he could go on and on - there have just been tooo many eBay 'improvements' to mention!

eBay management and Board members should read some of the discussion boards to gauge member satisfaction levels. eg. A current thread on the US boards:
