[quote=shaverg] Love Ebay, they have so many protections, even when things slip through, they fix it.[quote=Chasing Hawk]

As a word of caution, Ebay isn't all it's cracked up to be either. I had an account for years. Had perfect reviews for buying. Somebody hacked into it, set it up as a sellers account and proceeded to scam people into buying some knockoff purses. Then I started recieving bad reviews as a bad seller since nobody recieved thier purses. Then Ebay started sending me notices that my "sellers fees" were overdue and they were going to shut down my account. I didn't realize the emails were legit until I tried to log onto my account and I was locked out. I contacted Ebay and I managed to get back into my account and set up a new password (which I have totally forgotten) Then it happened again where they locked me out. I called them again, they got me in. When I told them I wanted them to remove the sellers account they told me they couldn't. once it's set up, it's set up. They wouldn't remove the bad reviews or anything. They basically told me I had to suffer. Needless to say, I don't remember my password because I don't ever get on ebay anymore. :(
