Bright Moments Posted August 18, 2004 Report Posted August 18, 2004 AAAAAARRRGGGGHHH! My favorite spot to buy music, half.com is GONE!!!!! http://half.ebay.com/index.jsp Quote
Eric Posted August 18, 2004 Report Posted August 18, 2004 Is it really gone? They have been part of ebay for a while - seems they are just making it more seamless? Quote
Free For All Posted August 18, 2004 Report Posted August 18, 2004 I clicked on the link and got the site which seems to be functioning OK. Am I missing something? Quote
catesta Posted August 18, 2004 Report Posted August 18, 2004 I clicked on the link and got the site which seems to be functioning OK. Am I missing something? Same here. I even got a very, very, special welcome message. Quote
Bright Moments Posted August 18, 2004 Author Report Posted August 18, 2004 try to search it. and where is my wish list! Quote
Peter Johnson Posted August 18, 2004 Report Posted August 18, 2004 Wish list and search work fine for me... Quote
Bright Moments Posted August 18, 2004 Author Report Posted August 18, 2004 seems to work now. before i was getting this: http://www.ebay.com/thehalfzone/ Quote
jazzman4133 Posted August 18, 2004 Report Posted August 18, 2004 Ordered from Half.com the other day and got it in 4 days. Phil Woods album. Quote
Claude Posted August 18, 2004 Report Posted August 18, 2004 Half.com will remain open until October 14, 2004 http://half.ebay.com/account/announcement/announce.jsp Quote
cannonball-addict Posted August 18, 2004 Report Posted August 18, 2004 Bright Moments is whistle-blowing without checking out the facts. Half and eBay have been partners for quite a while now. The same system as always applies. The merger just made Half's processes a lot more streamlined and automated for better customer service. Quote
Bright Moments Posted August 18, 2004 Author Report Posted August 18, 2004 hey sorry! it's just that when i tried to get there i was redirected! gotta lay off the afternoon starbucks! the caffeine makes me all jumpy! Quote
ejp626 Posted August 18, 2004 Report Posted August 18, 2004 But I believe that in Oct. there will be significant and negative changes. I certainly wasn't reassured by the message from Half.com/Ebay. Quote
Bright Moments Posted August 18, 2004 Author Report Posted August 18, 2004 But I believe that in Oct. there will be significant and negative changes. I certainly wasn't reassured by the message from Half.com/Ebay. hi, we're from ebay and we are here to help you! sounds vaguely familiar Quote
Big Wheel Posted August 18, 2004 Report Posted August 18, 2004 One of my friends has made thousands of dollars over the last few years reselling used books (he gets them at garage sales and Goodwill) on half.com. He's betting that his business will be very much affected by the merger. Quote
Rooster_Ties Posted August 18, 2004 Report Posted August 18, 2004 Oh man, I love half.com, and will be sorry to see it go. I've probably bought 30 discs over the last two or three years from them. Quote
BERIGAN Posted August 19, 2004 Report Posted August 19, 2004 Yeah, they were supposed to go belly up a few months back, then made up some B.S. about sellers wanting to get back to school sales, so that is why they are up till October. Sold a vhs that had been up for about a 1 1/2 years. Ebay is supposed to have something just like Half.com but I don't list with ebay, I use an outside company, I hate having anything to do with ebay's way of listing....come on Steve Jobs, or even...God forbid, Bill Gates, come up with real competition to Ebay!
