I was the biggest fan of Ebay for buying and selling for the last 9 years but the writing went on the wall when items I was selling couldn't be seen by US buyers anymore. I used to do a lot of business with them. I read a lot of the US forums and a feedback boycott is being suggested there. It used to be about give and take...

I suppose when I started watching for it was when ebay started messing round with payment methods and was constantly coming up with we are doing this for the safety of all users. But with each change things became worse. Ebay got richer, but the whole system became a nightmare
I started looking round for alternatives back when they bought paypal, but back then nothing could compare.

And on saying that anyone not signed up to the alternatives at the moment should do so, as some of the sites like OLA and Ebid are going to be bringing out some good deals over the next few days. OLAs rummage sale is looking good for bargains.

Looks like ebay must be worried about the boycott, as the padding glitch has just appeared again. I was just on the psu board , the same name that was part of the glitch in feb is back again.
Even if it is a glitch and it has been three month to repair how secure do you feel on ebay?
