#8, Is there any eBay media seller left who doesn’t already know you exist.

Then again, I know something you don’t.

I used to sell into EUK, when I was Director of a computer games publisher. They are a good bunch of guys there, its sad to hear about Woolies. I did have to chuckle as one upset listener on Radio One (Scott Mills show) said in a regional accent: “I love Woolies (pronounced WILLIES) – I think it was played 30 or 40 times in the 2 hours I was driving today!

#5 “its tried to be something to everyone and in the process not pleasing anyone! It needed a better managment team and a clearer focus on what it stood for”

Sounds like another well known company….. 4 letters beginning with E!

#4 thats a different part of woolworths that the BBC are looking to buy and its not in administration as it makes a profit!

What I am a bit tired of hearing about with this whole thing is it being blamed on the downturn, woolies has been in trouble for years its tried to be something to everyone and in the process not pleasing anyone! It needed a better managment team and a clearer focus on what it stood for, this should be a lesson for everyone in retail!

There are plenty of retailers doing well out there, boots, game, sainsburys, hotel chocolate and even house of fraser but of course this gets buried by the media in favour of the bad news!

Someone will buy woolies and strip out the crap, sell some of its key stores to other retailers and hopefully make something meaningful out of it in the future!

Woolworths is likely to be bought by the commercial arm of the BBC

what that holds for the future I have no idea

although less DVDs on ebay doesnt sound like a bad thing to me.
