eBay holds funds for a much more valuable reason than most think

The biggest reason eBay holds funds is so the funds can sit somewhere they accumulate interest. With them holding everyone's funds even for a short time, the amount of money they hold can make some significant interest for them. Everybody is aware of...

This Board is really getting out of hand with some really nasty people

On occasion, I check this forum to see if there is anything interesting. It is really getting out of control with the same posters who constantly make sarcastic immature comments. There are some newer ebay sellers who ask some basic questions and the...
