21 Days of Rage for Some EBay Sellers

Why not keep the money in an interest bearing account and give the interest to the people who own the money? It's not so much about eBay earning interest, it's about me <i>not</i> earning interest (among other things). eBay not earning interest doesn't fix that.

This happened to me a few times. I did have a new account but after I made a few successful sells it still happened. Shipping to California took a week or more plus an additional 3 days of "review" period, it really sucks. There's also a new charge called final value free where they take a chunk of what you sell and keep it, apart from the seller fees already. If you sell something for $200 you better believe it'll be $170 before it's over with.<p>I don't know if it's greed, or they really are trying to be helpful but it's starting to be a pain. eBay is turning into MySpace, I wonder who the Facebook will be?

So once again a large company introduces filters / AI / algorithms that screw up and occasionally (Or not so occasionally) screw the little guy.<p>and you know that, unless the little guy can get media interest to help on his behalf, there is nothing he can do.
