I remember reading that Ebay was struggling due to intense competition from Amazon for all of the “buy it now” business which accounts for a significant part of Ebay’s income.
So it looks like this would be an attempt at diversifying services, this one for those people who prefer to take more risks (no evaluation, no biding contract) and pay less in commissions.
People like to trash Ebay and its fees but it is a treasure trove for all sorts of things— I can’t begin to imagine if it were to disappear.
