August 11, 2006 by Ty | 1 Comment

A small group of eBay sellers launched a discussion group on Google Groups to “beg” Google to consider opening an auction site. The move comes after eBay announced a significant fee hike for Store inventory listings in an effort to “rebalance” the marketplace toward the core platform (non-Store listings).The Google Group, called “Google We Need an Auction Site,” was created on August 3 and had only 17 members. The Group had grown to a still-minute 80 members by August 9.One poster wrote, “I am a small time ebay seller, who wanted to “ramp up” my sales, and was just gearing up to do so when ebay decided to “rebalance” their market place. I was squeezed out. There is no way I could keep my little store open. HELP ME GOOGLE!”
