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.
