I have never looked at ebay discussions boards before so was not away this topic has been rehashed over and over again. Clearly the people who make the decisions at ebay don't read them either or they may have made the appropriate changes to fix the issue by now. Clearly this was a waste of time.

there is no issue to 'fix' each ebayer has a different way of doing things, and as ebay has set the fb process as a voluntary thing, where neither the buyer nor the seller needs to leave fb, what's to 'fix'?
