What I really, really, really want to hear from someone at Paypal/Ebay is what benefits we as sellers get. It's great that the buyer is protected and so on... but the buyer goes online, buys stuff (sometimes for less than 0.01% of the original value... gotta love winning $0.01 bids), pays shipping (sometimes way less than the actual cost of shipping), gets their products, takes their sweet time with feedback but still has their product in hand and is happy about it. Sellers get charged fees from all over the place - EBay, Paypal, and then any additional shipping costs not covered by the shipping charge (not to mention the money you might be losing just by the selling the item) and then we get to sit around and wait for our money.   Right now I'm out a $300 suit, that was sold for only $100 (minus almost $20 in fees!!) AND I'm sitting around praying for the funds to finally be released because it was delivered almost a week ago   If they're going to make us wait for arbitrary amounts of time they need to decrease their fees. At this point their fees are going to be deducted before the funds are released. Great. Should've just set up a $5 tent at a flea market and sold stuff there. ... View more
