But the company made it clear it isn't standing pat, with its stock price drooping 55 percent below where it stood at the end of 2004. EBay's shares fell 66 cents to close at $25.93 on the Nasdaq Stock Market before the earnings were released, then dipped by a penny in extended trading.


Beginning Aug. 22, eBay said it will raise a variety of fees for merchants operating online stores on the site. The change, affecting an area called "store inventory," could apply to up to 541,000 stores worldwide that sell on eBay. The new prices will raise fees by an average of 6 percent for affected merchants, eBay estimated.

Oh the under served STORES crowd will be thrilled.

I think it only appropriate to add this little comment below:

Xppman,
Looks like mutiny over there on the stores board. That ship may very well sink.

BPfiance`, the credit for that can only go to the misguided bandwith thief, although its creator was yours truly.

(reprise of increasingly maniacal laughter)

My pleasure. Making even one person laugh while opening there eyes a bit that is all I can hope for.

The funniest part was watching the bogus shill go down in flames with the most blasphemous thing that could go on their unhallowed board, as a direct unwitting result of their own wrongfully zealous ruse to discredit you.

I notice all the pros are always bitter. We are always happy. It's a great day to be alive I tell you!
