As you observe in another thread, it is a pity that the review still states that payment can be made using Skrill and PPPay. It makes a comment that buyers can only pay using three methods. This is not true. Paypal is the only integrated payment method. Buyers and sellers can arrange any other payment method which thay might agree.
It would also have been better if the review had said that eBid does not charge a transaction fee on shipping charges.
Must admit that I have never seen any of these site reviews that are well researched. Not just eBid, all sites featured in them.
In their defence eBid did give the impression that PPPay and Skrill were options until the last few days.

This fee still rankles and still comes up regularly on obays boards, but the cheer-leaders have perfected rubbishing any questioning of the policy. First, deride the poster -- "After six years why are you even bothering to raise the question".
Second, blame "the huge number sellers who's fee evasion caused it's introduction in the first place". Whether or not this number was ever as huge as is suggested is already lost in the mists of time, I only ever saw a couple of examples.
I agree with you. Just like other issues sellers have over there (like constant fee increases in contrast to ebids price stability), when there is something positive to say about ebid., the good points are rarely, if ever, ever mentioned. These things should be shouted about at every opportunity, not whispered about from time to time on these boards.

I also had payments from a new buyer yesterday, and a return buyer this morning. Over the last 30 days, I've had more sales than I can remember obay generating during a similar period back when I was paying for their store. Not a huge amount in sales, but that's the point: all of obay's fees, store and promotion costs do not necessarily result in greater sales - it is easy for small seller offerings to get lost among their soupy sea of good, bad, indifferent and sometimes fraudulent listings. Wherever, you still have to find ways to let people know that you are selling and where.
I do wish that the review had been more up-to-date, but still, it was nice for the site to be noticed.

That's really good. Hopefully it funnels more people over here.
