It's about Pay Pal and it definately sounds too good to be true; but
if so, they should do a lot more business.  For some reason, I gotta
feeling they're not going to make it easy though.....

Ebay has fallen too far down the slope to get the public's trust back.
What started off as a great public "garage sale" site went too far
into the dark side of profit/greed/commercialism.  The site is so
bogged down with spyware and crap that it takes pages forever to load,
and I have a cable modem.  What I find ironic, reading the posts
following the article, there are sellers posting on there stating the
Ebay favors the buyers. LOL  That is hilarious.  I guarantee that
those sellers have never bought from Ebay and only sold.  The buyer is
the one that has to jump through the hoops to prove that they never
received the item that they paid for.  The buyer has to prove that
they did send the payment.  All the seller has to do is claim that the
payment was never received, lost in the mail or the wind blew it away.
I just see this Ebay "promise" as more hot wind to try and get on the
public's good side again.  Words are words.  Actions is where the
proof comes in.  The only actions that I've seen over the last 2 years
is increased fees, more restrictions and less buyer rights.  When I
see live people actually responding to customer emails, instead of a
form letters, then I might think that they are ATTEMPTING to change
something.

The entire article is just meaningless propaganda.  I especially liked the
part about how a buyer in the past could get away with getting a refund and
also keeping the merchandise by sending back a box of rocks.  The article
mentions this and then doesn't address the fact that a buyer CAN STILL DO
THIS, even with the policy changes.  Brilliant writing....lol
