You know, before ebay fixed it so that sellers couldn't leave neutral or negative feedback, I actually dealt with civil people there.

Exactly. I decided to list a few more things, and have been receiving threats within a couple days of auctions ending.

I wonder if eBay knows exactly what they've done by taking negative feedback away from us. And I wonder if they might not be shooting themselves in the foot, in the long-run, by screwing over their paying customers (seeing as buying is free).

It was bad enough when they passed on the PayPal fees to us, and then took away our ability to deny (the frankly moronic) eChecks as a payment type.

I'll still use eBay as a purchasing ground, but until they fix things I don't think I'm ever selling with them again.

And they charge the credit card fee for every paypal payment, not just credit cards. Lining their pockets much?

Receiving threats? Egad. I've not sold much of anything on eBay, and certainly nothing since this policy change. I've a few things to divest myself of eventually; perhaps I'll go to half.com instead.

half.com is owned by ebay. As is Paypal.

Yeah, I know they are, but at least there aren't any fees for listing things. Upfront, anyway.
