			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Ebay deserves a lot of credit for building a massive system that never seems to be down.  Great.  But you know what?  That doesn&#8217;t excuse them for creating some really stupid interfaces or being complete assholes.</p>
<p>At the bottom of an email they sent, I saw this gem next to unsubscribe:</p>
<blockquote><p>Please note that it may take up to 10 days to process your request. </p></blockquote>
<p>Ten days.  Ten days?  Wow.</p>
<p>Now lets move onto the actual unsubscribe process.  What a nightmare.  Email preferences are grouped into sections, and only sections can be edited.  All the options are hidden, so you must first expand them to see what you&#8217;re getting.</p>
<p>Seriously, check this thing out.  I never use thumbnails either, so you know I&#8217;m pissed.</p>

<p>This process makes me really start to hate these guys.</p>
