Ebay reorganizing and Overstock Recycling

eBay North America offices in San Jose will become the new home of one very well known European executive Philipp Justus in the coming months. Philipp has done wonders for the eBay Germany site and many sellers believe a much brighter future is ahead in the US eBay.com Marketplace.

Philipp will head up a special team, reporting directly to eBay North America President Bill Cobb. Philipp's team will focus on the re balancing efforts at eBay core Auctions.

Similar to eBay's move of reorganizing Overstock Auctions has apparently began a recycling program, launched with a full banner ad for (You Guessed It) Pre-Chewed Gum. According to the Listing this is no ordinary pre-chewed gum, but that of Guy Yovan of ivillage Live complete with a letter of Authenticity. Bidding has already been vigorous with 23 bids from 3 Unique Users, two of which are from Salt Lake City! I guess Guy has a Fan club in Salt Lake with at least two members.

Will the Chewing gum loose it flavor on the Overstock Homepage Over night, or will it be the High Profile Auction that Determines Overstock's dominance in the Online Auction Industry.
