  • To Our Stockholders, Partners, Employees and the Ebay Community
    To our Stockholders, Partners, Employees and the eBay Community A Global Community Ì 10 Years Old eBay is an extraordinary company. During the past 10 years Ì the company's Ñrst decade Ì eBay has revolutionized the way people shop and trade. Before eBay came along very few people had ever experienced an auction. eBay has introduced millions of people to a whole new trading format Ì a format based on the fairness inherent in natural market dynamics and the good we Ñnd in our friends and neighbors. Perhaps more importantly, eBay has empowered millions of people to pursue their dreams of economic and entrepreneurial success. And that success has had an even deeper social impact. After all, the eBay platform is built on trust. The millions of successful transactions that take place on the site each day are a testament to the fact that people, when left to their own devices, almost always do the right thing. Every successful eBay transaction validates two people's beliefs in the good of others. In our world, that is a very powerful achievement. eBay thrived in 2004 because our global community of buyers and sellers unleashed their passion for trading. Our community grew to 135 million registered users worldwide, with more and more people recognizing the many opportunities available to them through eBay. Small business on eBay really came into its own in 2004. Early in the year, we discovered through our research that more than 430,000 users in the United States make all or some of their livelihoods through selling on the site.
