During initial years of Internet in India www.baazi.com was a leading site to purchase and sell products online. The populartity of baazi attracted EBAY of US and baazi was taken over by www.ebay.in. Regulations were changed and the business revamped completely.
Ebay.in was never seller friendly and it was always pro buyer. Even the largest seller never knew when he would be suspended without indicating the exact reasons. The suspension rule was never transparent and sometimes an honest or a large seller used to be suspended.
Time went.. ebay.in went powerful . Thousands of sellers from middle class families became seller in to ebay.in but no seller can say that ebay.in was their only business. Everybody knows, he could be suspended at anytime. Hence the business was always risky.
With the emergence of various big time online sellers selling books, merchandises, phones and other items with deep discount, ebay.in ultimately realised that it cannot sustain in the long run. Number of sellers on ebay.in got reduced , however faithful buyers never left ebay for purchasing second items, antiques, refurbished phones etc. At last one day we all heard that flipkart purchased Indian part of ebay i.e. the big www.ebay.in became part of flipkart.com
Flipkart carried on ebay as separate entity on its usual model and perhaps never interfered in its non transparent policies. However, flipkart allowed sellers of ebay for international sale at ebay.com.
Online selling has never been easy... snapdeal, jabong, flipkart, etc etc never earned profit. Naturally these sites are always meant to be sold or resold. Flipkart got offers from Amazon and Walmart. ... and one fine day Flipkart became a part of Walmart. So obviously ebay.in could not be part of Ebay or possibly the strategy of flipkart relating to ebay could not give the expected results.
Now, ebay.in is being finished and now all sellers may approach flipkart to register themselves and magic of ebay may be recreated over flipkart.
People earned a lot of money from ebay or they experienced power of selling in India. We shall always miss ebay.in. From 14th of August 2018, we may not purchase or sell at ebay.in as per the notification of flipkart on the homepage of ebay.in . Sellers get surprised and those who have ample stock, there may not be an easier transition.
