eBay Expects Half.com Problems to Continue through the Week
By Ina Steiner

Half.com sellers have been wrestling with feedback and inventory problems as eBay continues its integration efforts begun last Friday. eBay posted an announcement on its board on Tuesday that Half members can expect temporary feedback and account issues to continue for the remainder of this week.

eBay purchased the fixed price site in 2000 and initially planned to integrate Half.com completely into the eBay site. Recently it decided it would only consolidate account information and feedback, leaving the two sites separate entities.
