Xaxaxe wrote:I'm not looking to fan any flames or anything, but I have to admit that I don't see the problem here.One thing about eBay declaring someone NARU: it is permanent. That person is done. Nothing anyone else can say — whether through positive or negative feedback — can change that. It's already over. So it seems sort of pointless to me to worry about adding to the feedback file of a user who is literally out of the picture.+++++For the record, though, I've wanted to do this a couple of times in the past, so I can certainly understand the urge to do it. I'm just saying eBay's policy seems logical enough to me.

improvstone wrote:Guys Some advice please.My better half has just started using ebay and recently won an item. She payed for it via paypal. Soon after the seller sent a message to her stating that the paypal account she sent the money to was wrong and that she should sent to another email account via paypal.I checked the money was unclaimed which it was. Cancelled the payment then sent a response to the seller stating that if the payment was in error it was because they had incorrectly setup their ebay account. Fix the ebay account and payment would be resubmitted once the funds from the cancelled payment were recredited. The seller has since responded 1st with the same message via ebay then with a request for payment direct from paypal to this other account. Given that the seller has not responded to two separate messages, except to send another invoice, I do not trust them. Why would a seller not want to have the ebay account connected to the correct paypal account?
Wandering Monster wrote:Hi everyone,I've been putting Bidpay as a payment option in my eBay auctions ever since I started on eBay over seven years ago.Then tonight I stumble on this forum post saying that Bidpay went out of business and that eBay is randomly pulling auctions that list Bidpay and/or its logo as a method of payment. However, I've never had this happen, and I recently had a buyer pay via Bidpay with no problems. However, I have noticed that Bidpay no longer issues actual money orders but instead transfers the money directly into my bank account.Can someone please let me know what the scoop is with Bidpay and eBay these days???Thanks,JohnHaka Wandering Monster

Wandering Monster wrote:Hi Improv,Thanks for the link and for the comments... I think I might end up contacting eBay "directly" and see what they have to say about the issue.I know that for the past few weeks, anytime I've listed an auction using an old template which contains the dreaded word "cash," eBay ends that auction almost immediately, so I can't imagine them being so lenient on something like Bidpay... :/Cheers,JohnHaka Wandering Monster
improvstone wrote:Cash I can understand.The list of accepted services I took from ebay.com. Definitely check directly, however when it comes to ebay policy I would believe the ebay website over something I read on the forum.
