Just to let you know, I'm strictly a buyer on eBay, I've never sold anything, and I don't like the feedback changes either! Since sellers can now only leave positive feedback for buyers, my feedback rating means absolutely nothing. I have a 100% positive rating, which I earned BEFORE the changes went into effect. That used to mean something. Now it means nothing as all buyers will have a 100% positive rating. I sent a protest email to eBay. They sent me back a form page telling me how the changes will improve things. They have trained monkeys working the help desk... “And don’t even get me started on the rediculous changes to feedback!”

Do some research before recycling Smith's PR spin. eBay has NOT listened to the community. eBay is still FORCING sellers to offer PayPal whether they want to or not, and prohibiting listings unless sellers offer PayPal. eBay is actively cancelling listings if sellers state they prefer any payment method other than PayPal. Other payment methods are mysteriously not showing up in the checkout. eBay is contacting buyers with huge PayPal ads and claiming that other payment methods are not safe. This is still forcing PayPal on us by a combination of stealth and intimidation. And don't even get me started on the rediculous changes to feedback! What a complete and utter load of crap!
