The Best of Ebay

[eeTHr]

What alternatives to ebay & paypal do you use, if any?

I'm very interested in an answer to that one, too.

They are pushing people away, in my book that's bad for business. Going to look into billpay, gonna find out who owns it first though. If that aint going to work and I can't find anything else then I'll just pay cash or send a check or money order. Like going back in time 10 years for me and wouldn't bother me a bit, wonder if I would feel younger too.

Ebay is so big, they just buy up any competition. They tried to buy Craigslist but couldn't get all of it, but I heard they own a part of it.

The problem is Ebay is the only place that most people have to find the stuff they seek, or sell.
We need a company that will turn down any buy-out offers and build some competition for Ebay.
Until then Ebay will do what they want. Even afterwards I feel they will just do what they want.

Monopoly

We should start up a place through the GRF.

I have been an Ebay member since 1999, and you wouldn't believe how they treated me with that last problem I had with a zero feedback seller that was scamming everybody he sold to. They said the money they refunded me was out of their pocket, because of their stupidity. I don't know if they will bother going after the seller, after all $245 is far less than petty cash to Ebay.

So I asked this guy if I could buy the duck.Seriously.I don't kid about things like this.....rofl.Below was his response...
The duck is a friend of mine (and of my girlfriend's) .. she says "No Deal!"
Consequently; the duck stays in chilly fog-bound Toronto. Reasonable duck weather : )
thanks for your concern : )
it's my good luck duck .. bad luck to even think about making a fortune off the duck.
I'll have to stick to my guns - A Man has to take a stand every so often. The duck stays.
I laughed pretty hard when I read that.

Doesn't break my heart. I wade through a lot of junk auctions for so called "Mini Gold Coins", and "Real 24K gold 50-mil coins" and "Gold Clad Coins" and "Estate Gold Coins" and various other scams for the unwary to be taken by. Not to mention 1 ounce bars of silver or even worthless base metals with a gold plated surface being offered as a good investment and hedge against inflation. Often I don't think they're nearly forthcoming or honest enough in their descriptions that the gullible aren't going to be taken in.
