Managed payments is very poor for your vendors

[natrow2]

eBay, your managed payments system sucks, sold to your members as easier quicker etc, that's bs, sold something on the 10th, money is getting initiated to my bank acc 13th, won't see it till 16th if I am lucky. Sold without managed payments, would have seen it straight away.

eBay staff do not read here

Sounds pretty stupid to me. Perhaps it's more aimed at people selling a lot of stuff who will quickly build up a running balance and are not worried about receiving money from single sales as they are too busy packing orders all the time. Means more money floating around for eBay's finance people to invest with.

If you're not making at least six figures per month eBay don't want to know you. It's the sad reality of the modern-day eBay Incorporated. Once you become a business like Harvey Norman, Good Guys, EB Games etc. they will sit up and take notice. It's like a casino which gives its millionaire patrons bonuses for gambling, but the people who spend $50 on the pokies don't even get a free coffee.

Love the analogy

[natrow2]

Yeah I get why they are doing it. I am not a shop and don't need the money, just want the money before posting my sold item.
Considering I am not a shop and  I sell the odd item here and there with recieving  payment through PayPal as preferred but having to open up to all other forms is not what I really am interested in, just had to register to stay selling I was informed.

[natrow2]

Yep, nailed it.

Bet they monitor it.

Say what now?   Do you even play the pokies?

In Victoria, if you play the pokies you get unlimited free coffee and free nibbles too.

They want you to stay and play.
