Take a hike buddy. Read what I said. If there was an alternative, I would certainly use it. Right now FEEBAY is the only MONOPOLY in town. chaz
FEEBAY & PIGPAL perfect together!

Yes it does. Whether there's anyone there to hear it is irrelevant.

Sounds like a lot of work. Until then you can simply rotate your monitor 45 degrees and deal with it.
Nobody is likely to build a "replacement."
Tho, if GOOG continues to strengthen its "partnering" with eCrater,
it is conceivable that GOOG could acquire eCrater. (eCrater is now
a primary google-checkout partner AND has just rolled-out a new
AdSense scheme; the sellers also get 100% of the listing-page AS
revenues, for now.)
As has been discussed here many times, it is simply not profitable
to start an online sales venue as a public company. Even EBAY would
have been long gone, IF not for its PP and ad revenues, and its
other investments.
IF it was easy, GOOG and MSFT would have done it long ago.
..............
EBAY still works very well, but their policies are oppressive and
grossly "unfair" to the sellers that built the venue. As their traffic
drops and their fees rise, more and more sellers will drift away;
not all will be easily replaced AND a potential vulnerability could
be created. That circumstance is not yet close at hand.
Because payment processing is EBAY's only real hope for long
term survival, any assault on that element should be watched
closely and supported.
EBAY's "Amazonization" scheme will ultimately fail, but not any
time soon. Meanwhile, the only thing sellers can do is be cautious
on EBAY and continue to expand to alt-venues and their own
sites.
Worrying about the circumstance is fruitless AND counterproductive.
Just list and deal prudently and continue to make as much money
as you can.

Sound advice...though if I know Chaz, he'd rather whine and bellyache instead...LOL..
