Default Re: We need a new forum section for Ebay discussions

I think what's needed is less complaining about eBay and more understanding of how capitalism works. Complaining about eBay is a waste of energy and a separate forum really isn't necessary--in my humble opinion. The "lounge" and "for sale" sections already exist for eBay discussion.

EBay is simply capitalism at its finest! Winners and losers, happiness and sadness, excitement and anger, too much money and not enough money, low prices and high prices, superb timing and poor timing, honesty and dishonesty, success and failure.

People <font color="red">hate</font> eBay (capitalism) because someone else is making money.

People <font color="green">love</font> eBay (capitalism) because they are making money.

I've won and lost on eBay and will continue to do so. Sure, there are crooks on eBay but there are crooks at swap meets, in classified ads, etc., etc. For the 100th time: Buyer beware.
