I guess we are never going to find out the details but it would be interesting to know if eBay's bounce rates are increasing. Although customers can drill down the search results using different criteria I'm sure the initial page of results presented to a buyer are extremely important and if they are not good maybe the buyer won't bother trying to refine the search. The trouble for eBay is (unlike Royal Mail) that there is plenty of very real competition in the fixed price/new goods market place. Winning back lost customers is not always easy.
