Online giant eBay has brought a retail store to NYC for the holiday season. For one more week, eBay will have a midtown store for shoppers to stop in and buy items. They’ll also be providing a great option, to browse and buy things from the store using the eBay.com front page store without a registered username.

This is a great way to target customers who normally don’t shop online to get some great deals for Thanksgiving and Black Friday but also to expose the online giant’s website, which has been shifting from an auction model to a “buy it now” model similar to Amazon.

I’ll be sure to check it out again sometime this week and see what they’re offering. For those wondering what computers eBay is using in their retail shops, they’re using iMacs to help their customers browse for great deals.

Apple sucks once again! Turns out the big shiny store with free internet has banned one of the most visited websites on the web, Facebook. I guess Mark Zuckerberg defriended Steve Jobs. Omg! FB drama!

But really their reasoning is that the ban will allow more time for other customers to play with the displays. Honestly, I don’t know how happy this will make customers since they’ve already banned Myspace (2007) but free internet is free internet.

Update! Turns out Gizmodo is a big liar. Facebook is still accessible in Apple Stores.
