I [don't] hate E-Bay (was Cromemco 68000 on ebay)

E-Bay now requires buyers to accept Pay-Pal, and forbids them from advertising that they will take any other form of payment. So I if you look at one of my auctions, it says Pay-Pal and doesn't list any other form of payment. BUT .... that doesn't mean that a buyer won't take another form of payment, indeed, if a customer asks me if I will take a money order .... of course I will, I don't have to pay the Pay-Pal fees if he sends a money order. And almost every other E-Bay seller will do the same. [it's "dicier" if you want to send a personal check, for obvious reasons] I'd like to see someone challenge their policies on this on anti-trust grounds (for those of you who don't know this, E-Bay owns Pay-Pal], but so far it hasn't happened. If you have your own private credit card account with a bank and can take credit cards DIRECTLY, they will allow you to do that (and advertise it) instead of Pay-Pal.
