Question
I haven't heard anything since eBay Live about the Professional eBay Sellers Alliance.
Anyone know of recent developments?
For those that may not be aware of this group here is the statement from their "Welcome Page" in the eBay Groups area.
**************************************************
Professional eBay Sellers Alliance
Formerly, The eBay Elite
eBay's highest revenue and highest volume sellers have special needs. Assembled in a singular professional group, this is an exclusive private club intent on organizing those needs into a creative market force, establishing a voice for them and developing a variety of meaningful supporting discussions.
This group of highly experienced, knowledgeable and successful sellers forms the basis of a valuable asset that by working directly with eBay will doubtless benefit the eBay platform and the entire community on a continuing basis.
The ultimate goal is to support and insure eBay's continued global success.This group assumes a spearhead role for that initiative. This group will identify, explore, collect and report on matters important to its members and matters that the members have identified as important to the entire community.

Answer
A look over the bloviated listing text by the "group leader" plus a check of his feedback leads me to the prediction this group will, if it hasn't already, tear itself apart from internal ego conflicts.
Answer
I read there once in a while. They survived their growing pains and seem to be moving ahead with organizing tasks, committees, etc. A summit is planned for Las Vegas in October where members can meet and discuss issues of importance and continue to hone their objectives, methodology, etc.
Once it becomes a "pay to play" thing (dues), I'll probably drop out cause I'm just small potatoes.
Answer
Yup, they are trying to get organized. Committees have been formed and agendas are being made. We are all kinda waiting until the Oct summit to see what is what. And so far I've not seen any ego bashing.

I just love it that some have such a high opinion of thier own self importance that they think they can speak for the rest of us...they are going to identify matters that are important to the entire community!
