Very interesting article. Even more interesting when you consider Target used to sell on eBay directly from ~2012-2018.
They gave the expected diplomatic corporate answer at the time as to why they left, saying they were focusing on their own direct digital efforts instead, but I have reasons to suspect Target may have encountered some not insignificant triangulation fraud issues on eBay that could have factored into the decision to stop selling there as well.
- red-iron-pine 2y agowhy do you have to assume fraud? it could just be a big effort / PITA to do the auctions. there is a reason why "channel sales" are a thing, as are VARs, etc. sell to a few middlemen and let them deal with ebay auctions and other petty details
