<<Last day of window dressing in a down market>>
I have been liquidating lots of little things for a couple of years now on ebay, and always have 4 or 5 things on ebay (little items) I am surprised that bids are way down. The last few auctions closed without much selling (in the past, almost everything has sold, same items, prices etc.) Interestingly, i think it was a week ago last thursday ebay offered their "Gallery" option for free for that one day only. I immediately thought that perhaps they did that to try to bolster a bad quarter. I was thinking of puts but the downgrade beat me to the punch. I haven't a position , but methinks this may be a good short, at least from a fundamental perspective, although I do like the company a lot.

regards,
Harpo
