Whats wrong you don't trust this face?? Last time she had fun was the Walgreens spring sale on cases of Metamucil.

Borrie Borrington - President of Ebay Global Marketplace.


I live in a small town, in a relatively unpopulated area, so Ebay is actually fairly convenient for me. As a result of the low population, the local Craigs lists doesn't have much on it, and I really have to travel to go browse any decent stores. Ebay is handy for me, but I don't like the direction it is taking. As buyer I like paypal well enough, and have passed up auctions that only take money orders or checks.
All the same, I don't like being told what payment I would have to accept. I think they are trying to BS us with all the great "improvements" but they are really shooting themselves in the foot while hosing the little guys.

This rating system confuses and irritates me. What are you supposed to do if you are a new seller or occasional seller? How are you supposed to get a high enough rating to sell your crap on eBay? Sure, we can buy and sell here or on CL or toy shows, but a lot of the hobby depends on regular folks finding stuff in their attics and putting it on ebay. The harder it is for people to sell the less stuff gets kicked up. You don't want the little old lady with the carded Iron Man in Oklahoma to have any trouble getting it out there.
