You can check out Ebay's deficiencies yourself... .like right now.... Bet you can't even get through.."Network error" is all I'm getting back... You can get two levels deep from the home page but clicking on ANY category or item is not returned.... Look at their Announcement page.. the faults of ebay are usually laid out there... They've gotten better, but for a 3.5 billion $ company they can't seem to serve their customers as well as they should... I wonder if they are still trying to operate with Windows NT... I remember reading some time ago about how.." they were trying to resolve problems with their NT servers with Microsoft.... but weren't getting anywhere..."... sure wish I would have saved that announcement page when I downloaded it..

In the end though... there is a lot to like about Ebay...

I've heard and seen the first of Ebays marketing campaign... Radio ad and also in the Sunday paper..
