Amazon Shares on the Moon

Amazon has remained true to themselves and has never followed or copied the business model of anyone else. This is no secret – but it is an important factor and one of the reasons for their success.

As stated in another other news: “This company is executing flawlessly”.

I couldn’t have said it better myself!

The now failing “has-been” eBay is a facsimile, a cheap imitation, a copy, a xerox, a wanna-be and has completely lost it’s way.

eBay’s approach to disruptive innovation with a once successful business model, has back-fired. Their first mistake was to alienate it’s core customers – the sellers. Their second mistake was to try to be someone they are not. Third was to incorporate disruptive innovation with an already successful business model.

Those drastic measures of disruptive innovation are better used tactically as a way to reviving ailing, failing or dying companies. Way to go Meg and John! If I didn’t know better, I’d say John Donahoe was really working for Amazon. He sure has done an exceptional job of destroying eBay in a short amount of time.

All the good and honest sellers that eBay has kicked to the curb in favor of over-seas garbage and Diamond PowerSellers (who pay zero listing fees), have all left for Bonanzle and Amazon and they will never return.

eBay has never come up with an original idea and like opportunistic vultures, have always perched on the fence waiting to acquire and assimilate the ideas of others.

I guess we all know where to invest, right?

Kudos to Amazon for kicking the sand back in eBay’s face as they once again struggle to be you.

i look forward to ebay tanking and pierre looking for a job
