I have been asked by eBay to agree to new terms and conditions, which I think are beyond the pale, and as such I shall be closing my account.
The terms I find impossible to accept are these;

"eBay Buyer Protection

Under the eBay Buyer Protection Policy [v1], if we resolve a dispute in the buyer's favour, we may:

        remove funds from the seller's PayPal account to reimburse the buyer for the costs of both the item and original postage fee. This is in accordance with the seller's authorisation provided to us under the new User Agreement [v2] ; or,
        where there are insufficient funds in the seller's PayPal account or where PayPal is not the reimbursement method of the seller, directly refund the buyer for the cost of the item and the original postage cost. In this case, the seller must reimburse us in full in a timely manner for an amount equivalent to the sum we paid to the buyer."

I cannot allow them to access my funds, after they have arrived at a non judicial decision. On the face of it, it would appear to be a kangaroo court, and there is no word of right to appeal, or to have legal representation.
eBay have become too powerful, and their prices have crept up to the extent that the small private seller is being squeezed out, and the categories are now full of commercial sales.
Does anybody know of, and reccommend an alternative online selling facility?
