eBay China: Round Two

In September, news leaked out that eBay was rethinking its China strategy.

Today this strategy becomes a bit more clear.

The Wall Street Journal reports that eBay is effectively pulling the plug on its current China site and developing a new site in partnership with local partner Tom Online, which will run the site and also have a large stake.

Neither company has commented on this as far as I can tell.
