I am all for buyer protection systems...but eBay seems to have tilted the table a bit too far, allowing abusive buyers to roam free. It would be nice to have the option to leave negative feedback as a seller. This would probably level things out.

But what do I know? I'm just a small fish in the great wide ocean who wishes he could still make a few bucks here and there selling off unwanted stuff.

By the way, I typically listed items at 99 cents, no reserve, 7 day auction. Watching the number of bids add up was part of the appeal to me.

Ah, the good old days. OK...rant over.

Best regards,

Eric
I don't miss the "security" measures in place during the old days of eBay.
