I just saw this over on the Ecommerce Bytes Forum I immediately came over here to see what was going on. To say that I find this policy alarming, would be putting it mildly. I sell on Ebay, Amazon, and Bonanza. I accept Paypal on Ebay, and Bonanza. My first instinct is to let all my llistings on Ebay expire, and not list any more and to take Paypal off my accepted payment method on Bonanza, as I can accept Amazon payments there. I don't understand how anyone could possibly consider being held to a 180 day liability, item not received, or a SNAD. As I have read the previous posts on this blog, this is an unsustainable policy for the seller. As others have noted, buyer uses the item for 6 months, breaks it or what ever, then claims SNAD. No one could survive in an environment like that. Surly Pay Pal recognizes this opens the door for massive abuse.
