Cuban cards - eBay

[painthistorian]

This incident really has not done any damage to us as we never lost any services, just quite inconvenient. We have refunded everyone that purchased thru e bay since we could not end early. We also gave everyone option to pay by check or MO or opt out... e bay still allows these cards to be sold but NO ELECTRONIC TRANSFERS THRU PAYPAL! of course e bay requires us to use paypal so it is quite a slippery slope but a customer can request to pay the old fashioned way and WE WILL GIVE FREE SHIPPING to anyone that bought their cards last night. I said all that in one breath!

Now about that Cuban Missile Crisis Historical Book we planned to sell, well that one goes to donation.

I took it on the chin, and for the hobby, now everyone should avoid that dreaded word on paypal!

So let me get this straight: I can purchase a book on the Cuban Missle Crisis on Ebay, but can't use Paypal to pay for it?!

Is the C.E.O. of Paypal aware of this...or was this his idea? Or was this Marco Rubio's idea??

Unless Marco Rubio collects baseball cards there is no reason to mention him that isn't political. Please no politics or references like this you made. It will cause other members to respond and then.....well, we don't want to go there. As far as this "Cuba" mess with Ebay and Paypal, it is ironically stupid, imo.
