Most interesting part of the article I think was:

All transactions will be made through eBay's electronic payment system, PayPal.

Ethical supply chain??? What the heck is that supposed to mean? If Ebay is so environmentally conscious - why do they treat their antique and collectibles dealers like crap?

There is nothing more green than taking something that is used and already made and reselling rather than having someone make a whole new one.

"the AQMD found that eBay’s data center facility in Rancho Cordova operated three standby generators for several days “for purposes other than maintenance or emergency use."

What the heck else could they be operating them for? Just another example of their do as I say not as I do attitude...
