易贝易趣在上海创立,创始人是毕业于美国哈佛商学院的邵亦波和谭海音,这两人把美国ebay照搬到了中国,全公司就他两人上班。
2003年的时候,ebay准备进军大陆市场,直接买下了易趣网三分之一的股份。
马云看到时机,马上搞出一个淘宝网,当初ebay财大气粗,就曾想要一起买下淘宝网,但被马云无情拒绝。
ebay作为国际巨头,被马云直接打脸,这还得了,第二年以1.5亿美元全资买下易趣网,准备干掉马云。
2004年三季度末,eBay易趣累计用户已经达到了860万名。
当时,易趣的用户能与来自美洲、欧洲以亚洲各国的1亿多用户进行网上跨国交易。
尽管易趣网当时风光无限,但还是很快输给了马云。
2015年,易趣网的市场份额为29.1%,而它的竞争对手淘宝网则是67.3%。
eBay Eachnet was founded in Shanghai. The founders were Shao Yibo and Tan Haiyin, who graduated from Harvard Business School in the United States. The two of them copied the American eBay to China. They were the only two people working in the company.
In 2003, eBay was preparing to enter the mainland market and directly bought one-third of Eachnet's shares.
Jack Ma saw the opportunity and immediately created Taobao. At the beginning, eBay was rich and wanted to buy Taobao together, but was ruthlessly rejected by Jack Ma.
As an international giant, eBay was directly slapped in the face by Jack Ma. The next year, it bought Eachnet for $150 million and prepared to kill Jack Ma.
At the end of the third quarter of 2004, eBay Eachnet had a total of 8.6 million users.
At that time, Eachnet users could conduct online cross-border transactions with more than 100 million users from America, Europe and Asia.
Although EachNet was very successful at the time, it soon lost to Jack Ma.
In 2015, EachNet's market share was 29.1%, while its competitor Taobao had 67.3%.
