eBay Sellers Appeal to Australia Reserve Bank over PayPal Requirement

Anthony Green, an eBay seller from Australia, sent a letter to the Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA) requesting it take action with regards to eBay's policy requiring users to offer PayPal on all transactions. Sellers are still fuming over eBay's attempt to make PayPal the exclusive payment service on eBay Australia (referred to as "Stage 2"), which eBay backed away from after a regulatory agency indicated it would not support such a move. However, eBay Australia left its "Stage 1" policy in place, requiring sellers offer PayPal on all transactions.

eBay Picks Buyers Over Small-Time Sellers

Every time we've mentioned eBay lately, we've received a long list of complaints in the comments about how awful eBay is. It's become quite clear that there's plenty of dissatisfaction with the company -- and a big part of the problem seems to be figuring out who eBay is really representing: buyers or sellers. In theory, as an impartial marketplace, eBay should be able to serve both sides. After all, you need both sides to be happy to make the marketplace truly effective. However, with growing concerns of fraud on eBay, it seems that the company has recognized that it's more important to focus on improving the experience for buyers -- and less so for sellers, especially the smaller sellers. Witness eBay's recent change to ban sellers from offering feedback on buyers.

EBay Abandons Plans For PayPal Monopoly

An anonymous reader writes "eBay's has lost its fight to ban all payment methods except PayPal. When Paypal originally announced the scheme it was to be global, but they began with a dry run in Australia to test the reaction of government and consumer authorities. In the public slanging match that followed between eBay and the regulatory ACCC, eBay spammed users claiming it was fighting for 'safety benefits for consumers.' Fortunately the consumers won. Conceded eBay vice president Simon Smith, 'While we disagree with the ACCC's draft notice, we have decided to withdraw the notification to stop any further confusion and disruption among the eBay community.' Nevertheless eBay insists PayPal is now always offered as a payment option. Have big corporations finally learned that they can go too far? More chillingly, if eBay had launched the sc

Australian regulator blocks eBay's PayPal-only plan

EBay Inc. said yesterday it will postpone plans to make its PayPal system the only way to pay for deals on its auction site in Australia after the antitrust regulator said it would reduce competition.

EBAY (Nasdaq) rose 15 cents (U.S.) to $28.23.
