"Post No. 538"

How appropriate that here on my 9th. e-birthday (that is to say, that I registered for eBay 9 years ago to this date), that I'll no longer purchase anything through it because they have initiated the policy that checks and money orders will no longer be allowed to pay for your items through the sellers.

Here is their statement about this new policy, and it's not that I haven't seen this coming for some time now ever since they becgan initiating said policy in foreign countries.

And we all know "why" they've started this policy; it's because they own PayPal, and now they have a monopoly on payments and can charge what will become an ever-growing fee for sellers when they receive payment. This will cause higher starting fees and will be bad for them as well as the buyers.

So it's "Good-bye" for me to eBay until they discover that this new policy is a bunch of crap, and reverse their decision.
