I was checking out my eBay feedback, and I realized that I've been a member since Sept-15-96. I missed my 10 year anniversary on eBay! I really should have remembered it, since it's the same day as my wifes birthday. Oh well... at least I remembered my wife's birthday!
Over Ten Years on eBay! Things have definitely changed. I can't say that I'm nearly as gung-ho or loyal to eBay anymore. I still make a profit... but the days of making TONS of profit are over. Plus, even from a buyer's perspective, I'm not finding as many great bargains. Will I (or eBay for that matter) make it another 10 years? Who Knows?!

Mine's coming up ... guess no congratulations or freebies from eBay, huh? Just went back and checked my first transaction FBs, and a surprising number of the sellers/buyers are still active.

My 10 year is coming up soon too. I remember I was actually kind of late to ebay, I was successfully selling on other online auction sites at the time, didn't think too much of ebay. Wow, hard to imagine it became what it became.

Thanks everyone! Yeah... I'm kinda surprised I didn't get even a mass-generated email from eBay. Oh well, I didn't really think they cared too much about the people that helped build them anyhow...

Thanks pixiamom! And thanks for posting the thread on Delcampe. It looks like a site worth keeping an eye on!
