What was once a great community with sellers respecting eBay and eBay showing respect back, is now a shambles. Shame on you eBay, I have taken my business to www.bang4bucks.com.au, and will be glad to see the back of you. The problem is that we are no longer customers to eBay, we are little cashcows.

Would love to know how many hours (at $600/hour) the shysters charged them for the very poor legal advice that they apparently did receive.

They will probably have to take ebay to court. Thank you for writing to eBay. My name is............... I appreciate the chance to assist you. We would suggest our member still alter your listing by June, 17th. As we did not recieve any final decision from ACCC, and it was a draft from ACCC. Everything will still continue as it suppose to. :mrgreen: If your listing with other payment method on your listing before June, 17th. The listing will ended naturally, But, if you included your bank info or other payment method in the item description, then the listing would be removed. I appreciate your patience and understanding regarding this matter. Regards, ............... The response from ebay shows that they plan to ignore the ACCC.

I agree it does no harm for those in power at eBay to find they cannot dictate everything to their customers. Well it’s a temporary hold at least.

The partial jugement is surely right.Compelling Buyers to Pay by only one means,that means being Owned by the Very Company you are buying from.That surely is a classic misuse of market place dominance. Perhaps the Ebay suits are not as smart as they think? So the Big Behemoth can’t get its way on Everything.

Merely for the fact that Ebay now knows it cannot get its own way all the time. Lets hope the ACC follows it through. Interesting development... Mark I think this is a good result.
