None of the proposed scenarios in anyway touches on the E-Bay/Paypal RICO stranglehold they have on all funds generated by the Selling of YOUR Products, using their venue!!

Actually Collect Non Sport, but am just so full of myself I post all over the place !!!!!!!
It's got large shades of the Euro model, but it still seems to lack the kind of OVERBOARD recourse that buyers get with PayPal, GOOG, AMZN, and credit cards.
"Unauthorized Use" will likely be the only claim that consumers can make. That works pretty well in Europe, because there is some form of "mandatory refund" statute in much of Europe.
The clearXchange service will offer less opportunity for American consumers to STEAL from merchants; thus, it will not be a hit with retail buyers.
Obviously, clearXchange will not be quickly allowed on EBAY. Tho, with WFC involved with cXc, there is a chance that EBAY's relationship with WFC might get cXc in the door, eventually.
Clark Howard is helpful to some folks who are totally unsophisticated in financial matters, but his understanding of EBAY and PayPal issues is about ZERO.
Time and again I hear him get it wrong. It's as tho he has never even read the UAs at EBAY/PP.
