bright-byte , you have 38 FBs, and obviously are not really aware how eBay works; it takes time to learn and things are changing, constantly.  You are arguing here with people who have been here for years and some (not me 🙂   ) have tens of thousands of transactions, and know all that is to know.  Maybe, instead of thinking how to "improve" = complicate eBay, you should spend the time reading the site map, and then you may understand that it is not all that simple.  🙂   The best advice somebody ever gave me was not to worry about unimportant things. The time to worry about item not arriving is when the buyer tells you it has not arrived.  Unless that happens, just assume all is well 🙂

Just FYI I have been Buying and selling on Ebay for over 11 years I have also been buying and selling elsewhere for a lot longer than that.

 

This was not meant to create a heated debate just simply an idea I put out there and no biggy if it doesn't go ahead in fact even if the vote is an outstanding Yes in favor I honestly doubt that Ebay would implement it so whilst I know a lot of people feel very strongly one way or the other lets keep it to the subject and not make it personal.
