June 17th: 'peepal' ONLY on Ozzie 'feebay'

[hollandiacoolpix]

Interesting, just saw this mentioned on one of the US 'feebay' boards, it seems today the Sydney Morning Herald has an inteview with a 'feebay' Trust & Safety director who says that from June 17th onward the australian 'feebay' will forbid all payment options, except for 'peepal' (and cash on delivery).

quote (edited ):

"As a result, buyers will have only two options with which to pay: either cash-on-delivery, or via the online commerce website peePal, which is owned by feeBay."

Here's the article in the Sydney Morning Herald, and here's a (starting) thread on the australian feebay boards.

Australia first, who's next?

This is what I have just said on the post, how long before its gone?

raindropsies (137 ) View Listings | Report 10-04-08 03:57 EST 15 of 15 look, ebay do things the way ebay wants,

they do not care about what we buyers or sellers want.

there are other places other than here, and I moved all my items to one site in perticular. there are 7 different payment methods and 100% feedback system, and management on this site do not let people who are con-merchants.

Yes it's not as big as ebay yet, but it will be soon, since jan the site I am on about has increased by 400% even higher in some countries.

It's free to sign up and sell with no listing fees.

if you use link you will go to a registration page, so give it a go, it only takes 30 secounds and the site is for buyers and sellers benefit not for the site owners.

I know ebay has a larger amount of items than a lot of sites, but don't have your eggs in one basket, and with free listings on above then you have nothing to lose.

I sold on ebay until feb, but felt I had to change due to the fees and the requirement to offer paypal, which then paypal fees are payable.

This reminds me of another article I came across today at 'AuctionBytes Newsflash: Other Online Auction News, April 9, 2008' .... it seems all is not well either at the 'big river' site, see the "Amazon - The Great Dictator" link there

Btw, the comments of angry 'peepal' customers in the "Quick Query: Pay Pal's Director of Online Dispute Resolution" link are quite interesting as well...
