I got so fed up with eBay and PayPal, having been cheated both as a buyer and as a seller, after years of paying and earning money for eBay, having been afflicted by feedback
blackmail, having had false PayPal scam claims made against me, I finally, no matter how wise I had become to try and avoid such issues, decided to give eBay up as a bad joke.
My buddy is in EXACTLY the same boat; he decided to launch his own fraud free auction site to get back at Paypal, <a href="http://www.vbid.me">v Bid me</a> (do NOT use the link
code if it is not allowed – if links in the html arte not allowed simply put "v Bid me"); he does not charge sellers listing fees or commissions for basic / regular listings,
which is nice. But me, I think I have decided to go for legal action against eBay and PayPal.
I want to share some info and advice with others, to help them I hope.
Paypal security BS - Paypal claim they are doing all they can to prevent fraud, but that is false. Just look at the Paypal UK registration process and compare this with the Paypal com process. OMG, you have to provide card details and your home phone number (which Paypal checks) on the UK site but ANYONE can open a .com account with a free gmail address! Why is that? Because fraud enforcement is MUCH tighter in the UK, so Paypal has to comply and take greater steps to prevent fraud. So then ask yourselves, how is it
Paypal dot com are doing everything they can to combat fraud?! It is a nonsense.
Paypal feedback - Got a problem with a buyer or seller - too late or can not leave feedback on Paypal / Paypal remove your feedback? Find an Paypal user warning site and leave
feedback for them there; just look at what Google shows for certain Paypal users names (search for the likes of "leonmad", "majabali" and "history_relics")
I hope this helps. As I said, I am going to sue eBay and PayPal. If anyone wants to chat about this, let me know.
