Первым предметом, проданным на AuctionWeb, была неисправная лазерная указка Омидьяра, за которую заплатили 14.83 USD. Связавшись с покупателем, Пьер поинтересовался у него, «поняли ли Вы, что лазерная указка неисправна?». В ответном письме покупатель объяснил: «Я коллекционер неисправных лазерных указок».
Первоначально AuctionWeb был полностью бесплатен, и постепенно начал привлекать продавцов и покупателей. К концу 1995 года на сайте проходили тысячи аукционов. В 1995 г. П. Омидьяром были установлены базовые ценности аукциона eBay, определяющие принципы работы аукциона и действующие по настоящее время: «В основном все люди добропорядочны» «Каждый может внести свой вклад» «В открытом общении люди проявляют свои лучшие качества»
Сегодняшнее название компания обрела в сентябре 1997. Основной идеей eBay является предоставление продавцам интернет-платформы для продажи любых товаров. Сама фирма eBay выступает лишь в роли посредника при заключении договора купли-продажи между продавцом и покупателем. Оплата товара и его пересылка происходит без участия eBay. За использование платформы продавцы платят взнос, обычно складывающийся из сбора за выставление лота и процента от цены продажи.
Для покупателей использование eBay бесплатно. Т. к. прибыль eBay напрямую зависит от объёмов продаж, совершённых с помощью этой платформы, на ней действуют достаточно либеральные условия. К продаже разрешены любые товары и услуги, не нарушающие законодательства той страны, в которой зарегистрирован соответствующий филиал eBay и не внесённые в чёрный список eBay.

The online auction website was founded as AuctionWeb in San Jose, California, on September 4, 1995, by (French-born Iranian-American) computer programmer Pierre Omidyar as part of his larger personal site . One of the first items sold on eBay was a broken laser pointer for $14.83. Astonished, Omidyar contacted the winning bidder to ask if he understood that the laser pointer was broken. In his responding email, the buyer explained: "I'm a collector of broken laser pointers."[7]
The company officially changed the name of its service from AuctionWeb to eBay in September 1997. The main idea of eBay is to provide any goods for sale to the Internet-platform sellers The eBay company itself merely acts as an intermediary while entering into the purchasing-selling contract between the seller and the buyer. Payment of the goods and their transmission occurs without the participation of eBay. For the use of platform vendors pay a fee, which usually consists of …………………………………………

Exercise 5. («developing transformation skills») Change the sentences given below so that they could sound laconic and write the transformed sentences down, first, in English, and then, in your mother tongue:
The original sentences in English: |
The transformed (simplified) sentences in English (the key info) |
The translation of the plot (in Russian) |
1. Its customers – the 70 million buyers and sellers who trade there- have the kind of influence that most consumers and businesses can only dream of. It’s true; eBay has a business model that doesn’t require carrying any inventory. |
|
|
2. Imagine a retailer trying to do this: interview every single person leaving every store, post a list of what each thought of the shopping experience, ask them to write up a merchandising plan and call suppliers to arrange deliveries-and oh, by the way, could they keep an eye out for shoplifting?. |
|
|
3. Back in 1995, when Pier Omidyar unveiled Auction Web, he had much more in mind than simply helping his girlfriend trade Pez dispensers. He aimed to create a market for a wide range of goods, but with a difference.. |
|
|
4. “I wanted to give the power of the market back to individuals,” says Omidyar. But his biggest breakthrough was the Feedback Forum, a rating system that makes it easy for buyers and sellers to grade each transaction. Amazingly, it works. |
|
|
5. Can eBay’s values survive such grand ambitions? Omidyar worries that the growing participation of large commercial sellers could dilute eBay’s unique culture, “If we lose that, we’ve pretty much lost everything,” he says. |

Exercise 8.(«developing tempo») Прослушав текст, состоящий из пунктов студенты по очереди восстанавливают его содержание, с максимальной полнотой. Каждый студент произносит по одной фразе, подстраивая ее к предыдущей. Паузы запрещены. Каждому приходится опираться на надежность работы предыдущего «переводчика». The teacher reads up the whole text first. Some vocabulary work must be done before the “chain”.
