This excerpt taken from the EBAY 10-Q filed Apr 24, 2008.
If we are unable to launch and operate our new in-house global affiliate platform in an effective and efficient manner, our business will suffer.
 
Under our affiliate programs, affiliates and website publishers are paid for traffic driven to our websites. Our affiliate programs were previously run externally through a third-party platform. In April 2008, we launched our new global affiliate platform, the eBay Partner Network, which is managed and operated internally. If we are unable to transition our affiliate programs in-house in a timely and effective manner, this could result in dissatisfaction on the part of our affiliates and/or a reduction in traffic to our websites, which could adversely affect our business and operating results. In addition, we may incur substantial costs associated with implementing the eBay Partner Network, including costs associated with implementing appropriate internal controls and procedures with respect to the new platform. If we are unable to implement and operate the eBay Partner Network as planned, our results of operations, business and reputation may be adversely affected.
