You may or may not have gotten this email from eBay...depends on your level of activity, etc.

Look at the number of free ads they offered me. It would take many 24 hour days of work to post that many unless they were the "similar" kinds items and still one could "never" do it.   What are they thinking ?

lol. i know it sounds crazy but some of these drop shippers who dont have to physically handle products actually do carry a product catologue in the tens if not maybe even hundreds of thousands of items. for most people it would be difficult if not impossible to do this because of the duplicate listing policy, however if you have automated software you can actually put up a lot of acutions in a relatively short period of time

Could an automated program put up 200,000 separate listings in a week's time ?  Somehow I doubt it, but who knows.

They weren't thinking, just like whomever setup that batting picture without a helmet on the kid.

That's about one ad every 3 seconds, 24/7.
