Said goodbye to selling on eBay [View all]
I have sold many (perhaps tens) of thousands of dollars on eBay over the years, and never resented their cut for managing the site. After several months of a hiatus in selling, I listed an item today to find out that I needed to re-register. I gritted my teeth about entering the last four of my SSN for them, but I completely balked when they wanted the ability to remove funds directly from my checking account. I don't worry so much about eBay, but if someone hacks them, then I could be screwed, blued and tattooed. And, no, I am not willing to open another checking account with just a few bucks just for eBay selling access. I guess all good things come to an end.
Access to withdraw funds directly from my checking account? Not just no, but Hell no.
