The BBC’s Working Lunch programme today featured some eBay sellers who have been adversly affected by the new lack of visibility of UK listings on eBay.com. There wasn’t anything particularly new in the report – UK sellers are infuriated by the change, eBay claim it’s for the benefit of their US buyers – but apparently an eBay representative is going to appear on Friday’s show (sadly I’ll be on a plane, so be sure to let me know what happens).
Sellers banging their heads on the brick wall of eBay’s general indifference to anything outside the US at the moment might at least take comfort that they’re a group to be taken seriously by the BBC.
