EBay Lends Hand to Dropoff Stores

BAY dropoff stores, which list, package and ship eBay items for people who cannot be bothered to do it themselves, have gotten a little help in their quest to find a market - from eBay itself.
Anyone looking for the stores would have, until recently, found almost nothing on eBay, even though at least 1,000 such stores exist solely to list more goods on eBay. But dropoff store operators say that some changes this month suggest that eBay could be steering them to more profitable waters. The company has begun promoting the stores on its site, listing them in a public database and creating standards of conduct to help keep sellers from handing their goods over to the wrong people.
