    When you sell tickets on Ebay you get a big warning text-box on the summary page before you list.

    Why don't Ebay do the same whenever someone ticks the 'collection' option during the listing process - a similar 'warning' pop-up saying that you should not accept Paypal if the item is being collected by the winning bidder?

    People would ignore it just as they currently ignore the warnings on the paypal emails and on the transaction page. They actually have to look at the email to see that payment has been received, so it isn't like it is hidden away.

    Cut and paste from the top of the paypal email telling you payment has been receievd:

    This item is eligible for Seller Protection.


    Don't forget to:
    • Send the item to the postal address below within 7 days.
      Please note: items delivered in person or to a different address are not covered by Seller Protection.
    • Use a trackable proof of delivery.
