William asks…

Ling answers:

If someone hated you, is it okay for them to piss on you?

Donald asks…

Do you think e-bay will eventually replace garage sales, antique stores and hometown auctions?

With so many people busy, and the convienence of the computer?

Ling answers:

Online selling has made enourmous inroads into a lot of areas. Online selling of second hand goods is a good example. Many second hard book stores have closed shop and openned online versions.

However ecommerce simply becomes another way of selling, like advertising things for sale in the newspaper and providing a telephone number to call.

What we will see is a a degree of selling moving online. For example antique traders are likely to use more online selling methods and people looking for specific items will use online buying, however those that hang out in antique shops are likely to want to still do that. People really aren't that busy.

Mandy asks…
