Well you must have some type of avenue to get money in and out of paypal, and paypal is the ONLY payment method accepted at ebay.
Paypal is a major selling point to ebay. I think it was maybe 4 or 5 years ago people were releasing stats saying that businesses on the web traditionally accepting credit cards, had 10-15% of clients demanding paypal. I'm sure that number is way up these days.
I don't know if the same will ever happen bit coin, but, I don't follow that.
Your forgetting the point that I don't care about the entirety of the situation. I had a general concern at first, but now they can keep the item and the money for all I care.
You don't care about someone ripping you of for 1,000+ dollars, black marking your ebay account, and probably your paypal account?
Paypal and Ebay are tight.
Anyways I find hard to believe that you'd pout (it's okay, we all do it) over 15.00 and lose 1,000.00 in the process.
