I live in Alabama France 🙄
Sue & Chris are trailer park trash 😛 😆
😆
eBay don’t think anyone would make the trip from outside the US/Canada! They forget we exist 🙁
Now Doug’s head of eBay Europe, I really need to start hassling him about a Live! Europe 😆
See you there 😛
😀 I’m in!! 😀
Are any of you guys paying the extra 🙄 for the ebay gala at $150 😯 per delegate?
The extra isn’t for the gala, Jade; that’s included in the tickets. The extra is for priority passes, which – amongst other things – gets you into the gala first.
Ah thats sounds better! I obviously didn’t read it properly! I’ll just queue up instead, I am English after all ! 😛
LOL. I’d say getting into the gala when it’s got going a bit is a better idea, though last year’s lunch with the executives was interesting.
Paying extra got a much nice trolley bag which was useful for humping freebies around all day 😀
Would lurve to go, good price for tickets though but I think with flights & accom it would be too much for me on my lonesome this year 🙁 Are you booked for pole dancing at the vzaar party Chris? I missed it at Manchester 🙁
He he – if you come I’ll pole dance at the vzaar party (if there’s a pole to dance around) 😛
Tart!
*tips boxes of beads up to list and raise funds for Chris’s show, never mind ebay live!*
Would be great for a UK posse as you mentioned at Manchester Sue … *is torn*
Book your tickets and then work hard for the next three months to pay for them! You have 90 days to save up 😀
Not only is food etc dirt cheap in the US but if you pay for everything in March you can write it off this year’s tax bill if you talk nicely to your accountant! How’s that for an incentive?
DBL, come! It’ll be a laugh.
Hi Chris & Sue
How much did you pay for flights and hotel?
I have always wanted to go but it usually clashes with my daughters birthday. A bit earlier this year so I may go if it does not cost me an arm and a leg!
£470 flights from Heathrow to O’Hare and add on a hotel booked through expedia. Not too bad at all – plenty of choice still left 🙂
Incentive is there but so are 2 under 5’s. *guilt in there too*
The schuh boys are signed up to go to Live again this year…should be an interesting one this year! Boston was good, but with all the changes this year..how public do you think JD will be?
I don’t think he has a choice but to be public this year. Last year he looked decidedly awkward at the lunch meeting for priority pass holders, he’s really more comfortable with investors from what I can deduce. This year he’ll be center stage though so we shall see 🙂
Schuh boys, I rather got the feeling last year that standing up at the front of Live isn’t JD’s favourite place to be. Rajiv OTOH was pretty good, and very well received…. so it’ll be interesting to see who does what.
Hi Chris & Sue…
Chris…
Yes the priority pass lunch was not his best moment in the public domain, he took a side seat and just let Meg & Peirre do the talking, but he has no choice this year, he has got to be more available to the community. We got stuck on a table with these two girls who sell fashion from New York, and i must say it was one of the funniest lunches i have ever attended…hopefully the mood at Live will be the same this year.
Sue…
Yes Rajiv came across very well at the Keynote. Shame that with all of the changes that eBay is going through, why is paypal not evolving in the same way…
Well, Rajiv’s moved back to eBay now – he’s JD’s #2. And I think PayPal *is* evolving: remember the promise Rajiv made at the keynote to get all addresses confirmed, anywhere in the world? PayPal is some enormous (40, off the top of my head) percent of eBay’s turnover, it’s consistently profitable *and* it’s spreading itself way beyond the auction market. I think PayPal’s doing okay 😀
