    Any normal company would realise that whatever they are doing isn't working and change direction, but I fear they will just hike their fees again and carry on regardless.
    Well they've got new management coming in but once the split arrives it will be plenty of reports like that.
    Even without changes they were always heading for saturation point as more and more big traders sell online their market share will drop. Amazon have been busy heading off into other areas, Ebay's only success in other ventures has been Paypal, Skype was a failure for them, Ebay Express was a disaster, Gumtree appears to have lost its way.
