# 7 Sue, no reference to Tamebay, Whirly caught my drift.

Re JDs approval with employees at 28%, there was a great degree of seller dissatisfaction with Ebay management before JD took over, maybe a staff shakeup was overdue, time will tell

Good god mate isn’t that what the Gov’ papers etc, do all the time. A good gossip starts & ‘destroys as well’ (see HBOS)

I love TameBay and want to buy the t-shirt but I do think that you have to be a bit careful about reporting overheard phone calls from unidentified strangers on a train (even if they do make good reading & come from a good source).

What about flogging “We love TameBay” stuff instead?

What about ‘We loved eBay’ Flags,pens, mugs & T-shirts ?

Seems there is a BIG market for that

Don’t think we’d make a bunch of money out of those, tbh Whirly

#7 I believe Dave was referring to a certain company that promotes the use of videos on eBay listings.

You should report good & bad, and you do, otherwise Tamebay would just be a big boring advert for eBay, which thank fully it isn’t. If the day ever comes when you start selling “We love eBay” Flags,pens, mugs & T-shirts I am off lol.

Interesting, Dave. I wonder exactly who you’re referring to? I’m sure you can’t be meaning TameBay should only publish positive comments about eBay? (Goodness knows, we get criticised enough for that as it is…)

If I were part of a business that relied solely on another business for its existence that is the sort of comment I would keep to myself.

………“Too many talkers, not enough doers.”

Reminds you of the US & UK banks!!!!!.

………..“eBay attracts a lot of great people, then the company culture beats them down and they leave within a couple of years.”

Are they talking about the staff or dellers or both!!.

…………’ JD’s approval rating stands at a dismal 28%!!!!

Sniff a suspension coming on, “What goes around, comes around”.
