eBay policies will continue to be adjusted as time goes by to align with eBay market growth, The New York Times reported. Donahoe admited that eBay’s market growth has become quite stagnant as many eBay best buyers have switch to Amazon.com.

From the time eBay policies changes were announced in February, there have been continuous news about more policies add-ons and amendments. Looks like we can expect more changes.

The effect of some of those changes was beginning to be seen in financial results. The company announced stronger overall earnings on Wednesday, including a 22 percent increase in net income from the year-ago quarter, beating analyst’s estimates. The results were aided by robust international sales, a weak dollar and eBay’s rapidly growing ancillary businesses, like the payment service PayPal and the Internet calling service Skype.

The fee and search changes, which took effect only six weeks ago in the United States, Britain and Germany, appear to be having a positive effect. In its earnings call Wednesday with analysts and investors, eBay said that it was seeing increases in the number of listings on the site and in gross merchandising volume or G.M.V., the total sum of all transactions on the eBay marketplace. G.M.V. in the latest quarter increased 12 percent from a year earlier.
