Received notice on two of my accounts that I won't convert to Flea Pay's MP Scam that all listings would be shut down on 6/15/21. Well that date has come and gone and .... nothing. I have no doubt that eventually they'll do it, probably on 12/31, but it's clear they're not interested in losing these couple thousand listings and the revenue they'll pull from the sales. They keep calling and trying to get me to sign up; pathetic. Anyone else having a similar experience? They surely figured they'd lose some percentage of sellers when they rammed this **bleep** down our throats, just admit it Flea Pay and quit calling, grow a set, and shut down my accounts.

My date was also June 15. My listings are still active & do relist. I cannot edit or add new. I was disconnected from PayPal but had the option to reconnect to pay fees. I did that but it had no affect towards creating new listings. Why tell me I can pay future fees with PP but still need MP to pay fees??? LOL! I've had a whopping 2 sales since the 15th. Both were able to pay with PayPal. I just bought some great items including 2 Mitchell & Ness Jordan jerseys w/ tags. Buyers here are going to miss out on them. Of course, they don't seem to want to buy many quality I list anyway.

To those under the impression I'll wait 6 months to get paid, nah negative. Not a piece leaves here until the funds are in PP. Yep I still get my money instantly... how's that MP thing working out for ya? It'll be the customer without product, not me without money, and if they want to know why I'll tell them to ask flea pay. Feedback.... couldn't care less at this point. 286 listings on this account, but I work under 5 accounts (tax purposes). Yes I do okay on flea pay ($54k on the 90-day running between the 5), but it's a side gig and not worth putting up with their **bleep** system. As a matter of fact $346 just popped into PP, so absolutely still working past their shut down threat. Apparently folks are still seeing my listings and I'm still getting paid. I guess they've realized that a 6/15 kill date would have literally just cost them what about 60 bucks. Come on ebay, quit with the pathetic threats and calls and just do what you need to do ๐

Do you have access to the payments on those post 15th sales? I had my money frozen when I was just trying to get approved on my second ID. It wasn't released to me until I got the approval.

I guess you are just not worried about the 15% rise in paypal fees that has been announced
you can always sign up for MP and not use it.what happens to some sellers is they wake up one day and some money is in limbo.then they are more or less forced to sign in to get that money
when that day comes you can say goodbye to paypal
keep on selling

So you'd rather punish your own customers due to your own paranoia rather than just simply comply with a new payment system?
Bold strategy Cotton, let's see if it pays off!

I'm sure that when your accounts are closed, or you end your listings, that Ebay's CEO and Chairman of the Board are going to fly down to your house, get down on their knees on your doorstep, clasp their hands, beg your forgiveness, and beg you to come back.
They may even promise you that they'll start a brand new agreement with PayPal so you can claim victory over the evil MP and continue to use PP. This is because you and many others are so important to them... They may even promise to change the company name from Ebay to Flea Pay - just to satisfy you. Would that be adequate?
Cheers, Duffy

Just fine.
eBay is probably just shaking in their boots at losing you. Me, if I don't like a place, I leave. Easy Peasy.

They would not have to go to all of that trouble for me. They can just kiss my donkey as the door hits it on the way out. lol

Hi, Katzrul,
I love the idea of the violins -- maybe even an orchestra? Nah, just violins are best under the circumstances.
I'll be out the rest of the weekend... enjoy, everybody! And for some people, here's your chance to talk behind my back.
Cheers, Duffy

Yes, but can you get that money? My payments to paypal were frozen and I could not access them until I got into MP.
