To: Board of Directors for eBay, David Marcus, President of PayPal, and John Donahoe, CEO of eBay
John Donahoe of eBay, Sellers will go on strike.
Dear Mr. Donahoe;-
It is on behalf of very many angry eBay sellers that I write this to you.
The feedback system is very terrible in the sense that sellers can no longer leave negative feedback. Sellers who ship items with regular non-tracked economic mail are vulnerable to scams from buyers who file a "item not received" claim. PayPal does not protect sellers nor buyers alike. eBay's top seller system is completely based on who sells the most units, yet, it was based on sellers who had actually received so much feedback for delivering great service to clients.
Buyers are also subject to scams from overseas sellers who refuse to respond to PayPal after receiving an item shipped via Economy. PayPal agents often tell buyers that due to lack of proof, the sellers win the case in such an instance.
We demand that you lower the final value fees, give us the credit we have worked for, protect us from scamming buyers, REFORM PayPal, and respect the small sellers.
eBay was not built by the large brands that you now tout on your front page, you have earned your position in the market because of small buyers and sellers coming together to exchange goods at a discount. eBay used to be a place where one could actually find an item of value, now sellers have to inflate prices and charge high shipping costs (some charge $8.00 to ship 2 AA battery via regular posts) due to Final Value Fee and the mightily greedy PayPal deductions.
We hope that we will get a fast resolution or else small sellers will go on strike for a month and list on eBid, a rising rival.
Sincerely,
eBay Users.

Why is this important?
eBay has turned against the people who pay to keep it in business, the SELLERS. The feedback system is very terrible in the sense that sellers can no longer leave negative feedback.
