Eric Posted August 18, 2004 Report Share 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Free For All Posted August 18, 2004 Report Share Posted August 18, 2004 I clicked on the link and got the site which seems to be functioning OK. Am I missing something? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
catesta Posted August 18, 2004 Report Share 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Claude Posted August 18, 2004 Report Share Posted August 18, 2004 Half.com will remain open until October 14, 2004 http://half.ebay.com/account/announcement/announce.jsp Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cannonball-addict Posted August 18, 2004 Report Share 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.

ejp626 Posted August 18, 2004 Report Share 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bright Moments Posted August 18, 2004 Author Report Share 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Wheel Posted August 18, 2004 Report Share 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rooster_Ties Posted August 18, 2004 Report Share 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BERIGAN Posted August 19, 2004 Report Share 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!
