I already have a bear spread open on eBay.  This was kind of an impulse purchase based on the number of friends and family I have that are ticked off about the recent changes at eBay.  The current boycott may..just may..make investors nervous in a market that is headed down hill anyway.  If it does, I'll make a nice profit.  If not, I'll exit this trade quickly.  Right now, the number of autions open on eBay is down about 15% and falling hourly.  There are a lot of niche auction sites now that serve individual markets better than eBay serves the mass market.  See stampwants.com for instance.  So far, I'm up about $.10 a contract.  I'll probably take a profit on these at the end of the day tomorrow.
