Gerry,
Holy shit talaga. The longer the mony’s stay in Paypal, the more they’ll be making in interest. Now, if they do this to many thousands others, think how much money they’re making on interest alone on the undispensed money, that’s not theirs, that they put on hold. Wise talaga itong EBay.

The thing is… a buyer can pay me once he won an auction, but at the same time, he can make a setting to hold the money at Paypal until his item is delivered to him. Used to be I used part of that money to ship the item. Now I can’t. Frustrating. So I used my own money to send the item first. His item arrived in a timely fashion, but wouldn’t release the hold on my money for TWO WEEKS. I’ve had to pester and coerce Paypal to look into my case so they can release the money. Right now the money is still pending. Holy shit.

The thing is Ebay also owns Paypal. They bought this company out, but it is still the best way to pay for transactions in the internet.

This is why I only do meet-ups when concerning ebay transactions. If a buyer wants it, then he/she must make time to meet up with me. The buyer can see the item before actually paying for it and I also get the cash at the same time so no hassles. Meet-ups protect the buyer and seller both ways. But yeah..shipping items, using paypal, etc. etc. in ebay benefits the buyer more than the seller. Kinda one sided really. Like what Sir Gerry said.

I also cancelled my Ebay account.It’s no longer practical since the fees are already exorbitant.At nakakapagod mag-pack at ship. Wala na rin sa Ebay ang dating friendly atmosphere, masyado na kasing commercialized at naging dambuhala na rin kasi.

Gerry,
Good for you. I myself have never bought or sold anything on EBay. So I am really unaware of any of those problems you mentioned, still I never liked EBay from the beginning.
