Hmm, interesting. They were claiming you needed to use a credit card now. So
much for that...

They are seriously getting to the point of needing a good kick in the pants.
They really aren't very friendly (though more friendly to sellers, so long as
you don't try to embarass the heavyweight sellers).

They *do* require a credit card if you try to sell something (so that
they can auto-bill you for their share), but not if you're just going to
bid...

I also wanted to clarify that this throw-away account was created just
for testing purposes; I have no intention whatsoever of using it...  :)

I was curious about something else, too... The agreement that you
"sign" says "By clicking "I Agree" below, you agree: 1. That you have
read, understand and agree to abide by this Agreement and the
documents it incorporates by reference..." (and some more stuff).  Then
the button that you click says "I Accept", not "I Agree"!  So does that
mean that I don't have to agree at all?  :)
