To say that there exists a love/hate relationship between the eBay Partner Network (ePN) and its partners is not an exaggeration nor resorting to a worn out cliche. Many ePN partners are thoroughly disgusted with ePN at present. Case in point: just this past week, there clearly was a reporting issue where transactions (Winning Bid Revenue and Buy It Now events) disappeared for several days from the downloadable transaction report. ePN has yet to address this issue on their partners’ forum.
There was also a delay in stats reporting at the end of last month. This happens occasionally and can easily be forgiven, but what made matters worse, was the message in everyone’s dashboard that read stats would be fully updated by “June 31″. Even a leap year wouldn’t help in this case and the message remained in place for several days. It seemed like no one really cared enough to correct it.
ePN partners have become so used to this thing happening that any drop off in their reported earnings throws them into full on panic and paranoia mode.
