Resolved! Please stop accusing everyone of being a scammer

Sellers are accusing buyers of scamming. Buyers accusing sellers of the same. This does no good for eBay’s reputation and all of our sales! A buyer paying slow or a seller shipping slow are not scammers. People with family emergencies are not scammer...
