i like the $0.35 listing instead of $2 for a listing of $200, what i dont like is they are having paypal in the fees EVERYWHERE now...granted i dont deal much outside of paypal, but yeah its looking required

i just got done reading about the no checks or money orders. that really sucks. i don't usually buy that way but before i had paypal i did. i think it should be up to the seller if they want to accept payment that way. there are some sellers who only want paypal as payment, but i think you should at least have the option open to people. there are some who don't have paypal or credit cards.

too bad ebay is really the only good place to sell cards.

I wonder how the no checks or money orders will effect things overall. I know I always pay with paypal, and 99.9999% of the people I deal with do too.
