Why is Ebay cutting off Paypal ( Archived) (17)

Thank you.

they parted company PayPal sold eBay

Since I cancelled all types of pay methods other than direct dealings, over a decade ago; I've not been aware of ebay and paypal's working "relationship".

I suppose I may have to follow this thread a little then check with updated information as I still have an ebay account not used in years. I've kept online transactions extremely minimal with all the hype about "hacking" and such floating around.

I use eBay quite a lot and I'm of the opinion PayPal is must use. There are (here anyway) guaranties

PayPal payment system is still associated with eBay, one click your goods are likely then packaged by eBay and are on there way without delay (most of the time) so eBay has good oversight over most transactions.

PayPal settles payment without giving out any of your bank details.
For the purchaser PayPal payment service is free without charge.
PayPal charges your payments to your nominated debit or credit bank account and PayPal is a bank, much easier today than yester-year, now you can make payments to anybody and receive money from anybody (there are charges for the services) but very convenient, so you can send money to my email address through your PayPal account and I wont complain at all.

In the morning a Mechanic is servicing my vehicle and I'll turn up with needed parts to re-bush the front suspension wishbone with the parts mechanic required, which purchased on eBay far cheaper than other methods...tis good
