OTHER INFORMATION OF NOTE
************************************************************
ebaY is eliminating the ability to have a reserve on any auction
on the ebaY Australia site starting 10 Aug 04. The only
exceptions are listings in Cars, Boats, Other Vehicles and
Motorcycles categories.

**********
ebaY is conducting a survey to get feedback on how sellers
would feel if ALL sellers were REQUIRED to offer PayPal. It
looks as if ebaY is trying to move in a direction that would force
all sellers to use PayPal on the ebaY US site.

**********
ebaY's billing system continues to be broken causing sellers to
be double and triple charged on their bills, to be charged large
amounts even when they owe nothing, and to not get credit for
payments that are made, blocking sellers from selling. As
always ebaY has not provided a means for sellers to get these
problems corrected, and sellers are being faced with bounced
check fees, overdrawn fees, and a host of other problems
caused by ebaY.   Sellers are warned to carefully check their
accounts to make sure they are being charged the correct
amounts.   

**********
Booksellers are working together to build an alternative to ebaY.
ebaY has destroyed the bookselling business with their moronic
category changes and the destruction of Half.Com. Join the
people trying to do something about this.
