  Re: eBay feedback to become transactional only
 
(...) When does this begin? I am currently in a situation where I might need to leave neutral or negative feedback. The auction is now a month old. Jimmy (25 years ago, 16-Dec-99, to lugnet.market.auction)
 
  eBay feedback to become transactional only
 
eBay feedback is about to become transaction related only. If there is someone you feel is a good trader, go put in a positive comment for them now, or you will have to wait until you win an auction with them. This is bad, because you will not be (...)

(...) Which is fine until someone somes along and tries to sell something not within the TOS. Then eBay 'censors' the seller & auction by removing it. eBay is trying to walk a fine-line between having no responsibility (a common-carrier auction site (...)

  Re: what to do when ripped off on ebay ???
 
(...) Yes, if you are having something shipped to you via USPS, ALWAYS request Delivery Confirmation - it will only cost you $.35 extra. I ALWAYS use it when sending Ebay winnings in the US, so that I can make sure the sets arrived. Sometime in the (...) (25 years ago, 15-Dec-99, to lugnet.market.auction)
 
  FA: Star Wars 2000 Set Quick Auction [eBay]!
 
Everyone, The following items are up! I've made them short auctions so we can theoretically get them to the winners by the 25th of December, assuming prompt payment and US addresses.

  Re: States Go After Online Auctions; $1000 fines
 
(...) I'll have to dig up the article in our paper. I'm not sure who they were actually using for source material. The article seemed serious, and it seemed like it was researched and not just someone rambling. (25 years ago, 15-Dec-99, to lugnet.market.auction)
 
  Re: States Go After Online Auctions; $1000 fines
 
(...) The difference is that eBay (unlike a caller) isn't doing any flogging/promotion for the item. That's my main point. eBay provides an interface, but that's it. My other point (only implied, mostly) is that eBay will (IMHO) promote the idea (...) (25 years ago, 15-Dec-99, to lugnet.market.auction)
 
  Re: States Go After Online Auctions; $1000 fines
 
(...) Hmm. I hadn't been arguing this in a legal sense, actually. Legally I haven't a clue who's doing what. :) My main reason for thinking the auctioneer is the seller is that all eBay provides is an interface between buyers and sellers. Any (...)

  Re: States Go After Online Auctions; $1000 fines
 
(...) But isn't that analogous to real-world auction houses? They typically aren't actually auctioning anything either, just providing a venue and a caller (didn't want to call them auctioneers to avoid term confusion) in exchange for a percentage (...)

  Re: States Go After Online Auctions; $1000 fines
 
(...) Sorry to jump in... just putting in $.02-- I'm of the mind to think that legally, it could be arguable that ebay is doing the actual auctioning... I think the best argument is the one previously presented: how is it different from hiring a (...) (25 years ago, 15-Dec-99, to lugnet.market.auction)
