Please consider joining in the protest: no buying or selling at GreedBAY during that week. Sellers are unhappy about the new fee increases. Buyers and sellers alike are upset about changes in the new feedback system, as well as the company's recent name-calling and shocking attitude toward its customers.Patricknoreply@blogger.comBlogger211100tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5481538492231716074.post-26447850130490498902008-03-04T18:23:00.001-08:002008-03-04T18:23:27.772-08:00<object width="425" height="355"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/24X-SlDmqKI"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/24X-SlDmqKI" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="355"></embed></object><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5481538492231716074-2644785013049049890?l=greedbayprotest.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Patricknoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5481538492231716074.post-83116735544762578642008-02-18T19:06:00.000-08:002008-02-18T19:07:16.100-08:00<!-- // Start feepay parody movie code --><br /><style><br />#feepay_swf { padding: 15px; background: #000; text-align: center; }<br />#feepay_swf h3, #feepay_swf h3 a, #feepay_swf span { font-family: verdana,tahoma,helvetica,sans-serif; }<br />#feepay_swf h3 { color: #ccc; font-size: 12px; margin: .5em 0; padding: .25em 0; }<br />#feepay_swf h3 a { color: #ffc; font-size: 12px; font-style: italic; }<br />#feepay_swf h3 a:hover { color: #009; background: #ffc; }<br />#feepay_swf span { color: #999; font-size: 11px; padding: .5em 0; }<br /></style><br /><div id="feepay_swf"><br /><object classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=4,0,2,0" width="400" height="300"><br /> <param name="movie" value="http://www.ioffer.com/imgs/feepay/feepay.swf"><br /> <param name="quality" value="high"><br /> <embed src="http://www.ioffer.com/images/misc/feepay/feepay.swf" quality=high pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/shockwave/download/index.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="400" height="300"></embed><br /> </object><br /> <h3>When you've had enough of the feePay game,<br /><br /> be sure to check out <a href="http://www.ioffer.com/?cmpid=feepay&attr=page" target="_new">iOffer.com</a>.</h3><br /> <span>Please make sure your speakers are turned on.</span><br /></div><br /><!-- // End feepay parody movie code --><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5481538492231716074-8311673554476257864?l=greedbayprotest.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Patricknoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5481538492231716074.post-9200790537683804982008-02-18T17:22:00.001-08:002008-02-18T17:22:48.077-08:00<object width="425" height="355"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/0DlLK7aS8PE&rel=1"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/0DlLK7aS8PE&rel=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="355"></embed></object><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5481538492231716074-920079053768380498?l=greedbayprotest.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Patricknoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5481538492231716074.post-14349381788526598472008-02-18T17:13:00.000-08:002008-02-18T17:14:36.800-08:00<object width="425" height="355"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/lr_7--e5A1g&rel=1"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/lr_7--e5A1g&rel=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="355"></embed></object><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5481538492231716074-1434938178852659847?l=greedbayprotest.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Patricknoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5481538492231716074.post-66518903602754911312008-02-14T16:58:00.001-08:002008-02-14T16:58:54.396-08:00<a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/ginchy/2265749840/" title="BOYCOTT EBAY 2/18-2/25!

I strongly encourage you to check this issue out for yourself. Be aware that some offensive language in Griff's blog was removed by eBay.
