I suspect that is partly due to them being so money hungry, giving lousy customer support, and pricing themselves out of the market with ever increasing fees. Much of what I've seen for sale on Ebay over the years is overpriced crap anyway. In regard to the good stuff, I don't see anything selling cheap. I bid on many types of equipment - but refuse to bid on anything higher than I'd pay if it was sitting in someone's front yard locally with a "for sale" sign on it.
I've followed Ebay very closely since it started. At the incipient level, it had many good deals. Then, more and more bozos got involved trying to get ridiculous prices for things - and often suceeded. Now, seems many buyers are becoming more aware of the true value of things and not getting mezmerized by Ebay's so-called "auctions."
That being said, I've gotten some pretty good deals lately on the German Ebay. But, there's not a awful lot I need that comes from Germany. I did, however, just get a bunch of new Stihl chainsaw parts that cannot be bought here in the USA. Also bought a full set of the original TV show Bonanza, in chronilogical order from 1959 and with original soundtrack - that - for some strange reason - cannot be bought in the USA. It was pretty weird to hear Hoss speak in German - and also a few Indians - until I found the "English" button. That, in turn, led me to buy a univeral DVD player that plays any region, and any format.
Ebay owns a large interest in Craigslist - so I wonder when they are going to ruin that too.
