Colorful Ebay

Plain facts that anybody who is not an idiot can understand:

  • Ebay bought fast growing Skype at $3.1 B bargain price.
  • Skype continued to grow its user base, revenues and earning because it offers great services.
  • Today Microsoft wants to buy  Skype for $8.5B
Anybody who is not an idiot would have banked those nice $5.4 Billion appreciation.
But Ebay’s CEOs are idiots. This how the managed to blunder the easiest deal of their lives:

One Way to go is AWAY FROM Etrade: Etrade is the only online broker that charges international customers DOUBLE COMMISSIONS ($19.99)

 

It is official: Etrade lies on their commissions. On http://www.etrade.com they say commissions is $9.99. They don’t say anything about double commissions ($19.99)  for international customers for the same trades that cost US customers $9.99 This is the official statement by Etrade staff of their ripoff:
