eBay is an auction site, its users have the RIGHT to choose whom to use to pay!!
I dislike PayPal for a long time already.
eBay & PayPal both charge tons of fees.... leaving sellers little room to profit.
Again, it's auction house but again No.
It's unlike a conventional auction house that takes payment for buyer then pays the seller.
eBay is, as they have claimed, to be a intermediary for both buyer & seller.
So it's up to the buyer & seller to use any PAYMENT METHOD they desire. Not up to eBay.
PayPal has been pretty lame since it has been bought out by eBay. I find it very annoying because of its money-making scheme (money that is already in the system is still charged at the same rate). It's time for another leading power to take on this otherwise ebay is just another monopoly.
