Dear Linkers,
Like many other Linkers no doubt, I enjoy trading on eBay.
But eBay's plans, such as its plan to lock-out any competitors to its
wholly-owned PayPal subsidiary, are growing increasingly ugly.
The ACCC has now published an account of a hitherto unpublicized meeting
it had earlier this month with the head of the Professional eBay Sellers
Alliance.
He told the ACCC eBay plans to sue local company, Oztion, "and ensure
they are shut down" if they ever grow big enough to provide any real
competition.
To find the document on the ACCC web-site go to the Public Registers,
select 'authorizations and notifications registers', then 'exclusive
dealings notifications', then click on the eBay link and choose 'ACCC
correspondence.'
