Second, it will cause a lot of folks to go back to alternative forms of payment which then opens the door for the possibility of more scams. Power sellers may find it more convenient to set up a Visa merchant account and bypass Paypal altogether. EBay have anticipated this and are moving to remove the options of other forms of payment. They are testing this out in Australia, where, in a few weeks time, the only acceptable payments will be cash and Paypal. This is being challenged by the regulatory body here (ACCC). Stay tuned for the outcome, if they are successful here, they'll probably roll this out across the world. :mad: |

Location: Scotland | Ebay UK bans the solicitation of cash payments by distance sellers. As for removing the acceptance of credit card payments by merchant account holders, this would be seen under UK law as "Restraint Of Trade" and would be laughed out of court. I hope the ACCC are succesful. |

Location: Scotland | Greg, I'm a dumbass, I should've had Cliff bring one back over and ship it from NJ. I'll get back on it, promise, and apologies. It's out of the usual system (that's my excuse and I'm sticking to it) |

I've ALWAYS used direct bank deposit for selling AND buying. The only time I use PayPal is for overseas purchases. |
