[Milsurplus] A New eBay Screw

[Edward Greeley]

Well, ya see it's like this: I call it the "programmer syndrome". It's 
very similar to the "lawyer syndrome". If ya have one or more of those 
critters on payroll, or retainer, they have to stay "busy", "tweaking" 
or "improving the experience" to justify their continued 
employment/paydays, or retainers. It matters not whether their 
continuing fugging with the system improves "user friendliness" and 
therefore the bottom line, the object of the exercise is the exercise 
itself.

I have been a "member" (har, har, ha, ha, yuk, yuk!) of eBay almost 
since their day one. It gets steadily worse and worse for sellers. I 
still buy an item there once in a while, but I will NEVER AGAIN try to 
sell anything there, it simply isn't worth the PITA.

Screw them and their programmers and lawyers.

End of rant,
Ed Greeley
