Everything is Overrated

eBay - FAIRLY OVERRATED

I like eBay, usually. The selection is amazing (duh), and people will buy anything, including (but not limited to) an old 8-track of the Grease soundtrack (I totally found it in the basement, really). eBay, however, is fairly overrated. Why?

1) Other bidders are stupid. I learned this when I tried to buy a $25 Amazon.com gift card and I lost to a guy who bid $25.16.

2) People charge insane amounts for shipping small items and get away with it. $6.99 to ship a DVD? Makes no sense.

3) Unlike Google and Amazon (two internet companies that are probably fairly rated), eBay is constantly doing stuff that pisses people off, probably because they don’t really seem to listen to their users.

eBay is overrated (but does not suck).
