So I'm perusing a non-card related message board and I see this..........

pertaining to Ebay's new buyer rules policies:



I sold something last night and the guy who bought it has 4 feedback as a buyer.

One of the feedback was positive but the comment was that the person was an non-paying buyer. I'm thinking I'm probably screwed on this transaction and have already set a reminder for myself in my calendar to file and unpaid item dispute on Monday night.

I have my selling restrictions set on the most stringent settings. Even those settings only allow you to stop someone who has TWO unpaid item disputes against them. You set it for just one and you can't set it for longer than 12 months. I'd prefer to make it so no one who has EVER had an unpaid item dispute against them can bid on my stuff, but eBay won't let me.

They've really libbed it up and given the buyers ALL the power. It's so incredibly lame. Combine that with the level to which they've upped the sellers fees in the last few years and it's really tough to be a seller anymore.

    it's almost equally as tough to be a buyer any longer too.

    I think it would be more logical to reject reguards to NPI in a percent base system.

    There are many logical reasons why a person may not want to complete a transaction (seller wants more for shipping, seller wont agree to a term listing in the auction, et al).

    If people spent as much time trying to make Ebay work for them as they do complaining about Ebay policies they could all make enough to retire by the time they're 50.
