Walk Through an eBay Transaction
The path of a transaction within eBay (Figure 1-1) illustrates the roles of the buyer
and seller as they interact with eBay and each other. Sally, the seller, may be listing
her item as an auction item or as an item to be sold at a fixed price. Bob, the buyer,
and Sally may never meet, but through business transactions, they will know
each other in a way that even their neighbors don??™t know each of them!
