e-commerce:

A Wall Street Journal article today revealed the auction behemoth is getting more and more nervous over Google’s foray into the e-commerce sphere. How nervous? Enough to seek help from Yahoo and Microsoft.

Wall Street analysts have long argued that plans to use Base to process payments from online merchants is a threat to eBay’s lucrative PayPal business. Publicly, both eBay and Google have downplayed such speculation.’
