HIP 2 KARAOKE

Ebay Rules - No Duplicate Listings

On October 26, 2010 ebay instituted a new policy. No duplicate listings!

This policy was obviously dreamed up by some geeks in a windowless room, who have no clue as to how the real world functions. The policy has totally screwed up the organization of our ebay store. As an example - if a new Chartbuster disc is released, we can only list it 1 time. This would be in the Chartbuster section - obviously! But, this also means that we can not list it in the New Release section , on a Top 10 list, etc.

Does ebay  care?

You judge:  We pleaded with them to exempt us from their ill-thought-out policy. But, they just shined us on, removed over 500 Hip 2 Karaoke listings and created unimaginable havoc in our ebay store.

As a consequence, all of the organization that we had built into our store over the past 7 years was summarily trashed. Imagine going to your favorite record store and having every record (including new releases) just thrown into one large pile, along with all of the other albums  released since the Beatles arrived from Liverpool. Good luck! Our hope is that all of the ebay employees have their paychecks dumped into one gigantic pile and told to jump right in and find their hard-earned (sic) dollars.

We have taken down all of our ebay listings and re-listed them as best we could. We know that ebay's policy has adversely affected your buying experience at Hip 2 Karaoke. And we also know that we have listed some discs that are no longer available. Unfortunately, there was no way to avoid this short of spending hundreds of hours pouring over the disc availablity lists from karaoke manufacturers. So, if we have to refund a few orders for unavailable discs, please accept our apologies and know that the fault was not ours.
