LetGoBucsI can understand them putting something out that requires sellers to offer buyers the option of using Paypal....but to mandate using it doesn't make a lot of sense to me.
There is a segment of society that doesn't like electronic payments, that are old fashioned......and should it be a surprise that there is a decent amount of correlation between those that are old fashioned and those that are collectors???
Many collectors still like to pay with checks and, at least in stamps some of them have been doing it for thirty, fourty and fifty years.....They have adjusted to use Ebay but aren't likely to go and sign up for a credit card just to buy stamps over the internet.
I think that they might introduce this but it will eventually be modified.
Still think that Ebay is basically still a good deal, especially if you compare to the cost of having a retail store or doing shows. How else are you able to find buyers from Alaska, UK, Czech Republic, etc?
