Re: PayPal Security Change or Closing The Monopoly?

The Link to the announcement:

http://www2.ebay.com/aw/uk/200803211515302.html

A US seller posted on the eBay forums to comment that the 'holding' ruling has been in force there for a while and PayPal can hold your funds for 21 days. There are some 'get outs' for regular sellers.

They went on to say that the inclusion of PayPal on ALL listings was new to them, but they expect it to come into force in the US since we are being hit with it.

Now if they would just offer Google Checkout - I can use that and pay far less than PayPal. Income up to £50,000 a year and PayPal does not compete. It is far more expensive.

Recent fee increases have meant some of my items at £99 cost me £5.40 as a FVF then almost as much via PayPal to get the money PLUS they charge the full fee on the postage! With listing fees you are looking at 10%.

I agree with trying other avenues and we have listings on eBid and TazBar - only the latter has actually given ANY sales in the last twelve months. Our own website has done far more than both together - and all via Google Checkout too!
