spacefinder 10 Posted May 4, 2012 Hi, I've been frustrated by the search facilities on bidorbuy for some time, as I am very familiar with eBay's search facilitiy. In turn, they are frustrated by their own shortcomings...... this article is a great way to think about how we can improve bidorbuy ( I AM a fan!): EBay, Wal-Mart to compete with Amazon - International | IOL Business | IOL.co.za Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
qball 11 Posted May 7, 2012 Give us EBay's and Amazon's budget, resources and staff - we can make it happen... unfortunately as highlighted we have a vastly different model to a retail store like Amazon, where our products are described by the lister and not by catalogue, this is first issue. Secondly, specialist developers in that field are difficult to find (most search technology is overseas based and driven), to recruit a foreign specialist will be financially incredibly difficult. Lastly, the resources and funds required - we are nowhere near the size or have nearly the same budget as these companies... Thanks for the feedback, we will try to continue to improve on this area.
