Links Policy: eBay’s own goal

With all the brouhaha regarding off site links both in the UK and the US you might expect eBay to be a pretty safe place to trade. Buyers shouldn’t be directed to sellers own websites but that’s not the case when it’s eBay themselves.

A new seller profile on Jack Sheng (who has two eBay accounts with 1 million feedback and another about to reach the million mark) links directly to his websites.

Why not link to his eBay shops? Why link directly to his websites eforcity, everydaysource and accstation?

Buyers going to marvel at his 1 million feedback are simply getting redirected to off eBay websites. The eBay ID’s are eforcity, everydaysource and accstation. Mind you I don’t suppose Jack is complaining about a few extra sales with no eBay fees to pay!

Come on eBay, get your house in order and change the links Jack’s eBay stores.
