Amazon-eBay Fight over Marketplace Sellers Intensifies
It looks like a do-or-die situation for Amazon (AMZN) and eBay (EBAY) in their race to attract third-party sellers to their online marketplaces. Earlier this month, eBay accused Amazon of illegally poaching its sellers. According to eBay, a team of Amazon sales representatives has been involved in a scheme in which they send messages to eBay sellers to try to sway them to move to Amazon’s platform.
