On the surface the changes are great news. Upon closer examination, however, you will realize that if the changes apply to Powersellers only, then there will be significantly fewer sellers from benefitting from this policy change than what you might expect.

Ebay is also making Powerseller status dependent on DSRs and not just on sales volume alone anymore. This change will drastically reduce the number of Powersellers, which also reduces the number of sellers eligible for the new seller protection. The net effect is likely going to be very few Powersellers enjoying a significant higher level of protection, and perhaps 80-90% fewer Powersellers of which 100% of them will no longer enjoy any protection at all. Its up to the ebay user base to decide which is preferable: many Powersellers enjoying some level of protection or most former Powersellers enjoying no level of protection at all anymore.

Lastly, i would just like to congratulate and thank all the users and adminstrators of this blog for the invaluable contributions they provide to countless ebayers the world over. I greatly enjoy reading every post for many months now and i promise to be a dilligent follower in the future.

I have been able to take away many opinions and to give them to our team at uniseek.com to incorporate, so that we may provide ebayers and non-ebayers with better opportunities and tools than currently available to realize their dreams of owning and growing their own online business.

I also hope to comment more in the future to provide a certain perspective, the administrators willing, that is currently not found very often on this blog.

Sorry that’s not too helpful, but not too long hopefully, weeks not months is the best information available
