Quote:To: Mr. Bill Cobb and eBay Leadership
The leadership of eBay.com in July of 2006 updated their online policy to ban the use of Google Checkout as a valid payment option for sellers and buyers on the eBay platform. At that time the eBay member community was informed that eBay was taking this action to "protect" the community by instituting this ban while they Âevaluate the validity of this payment system.
Now over 6 months later eBay still refuses to allow Google Checkout as a valid payment option for buyers or sellers on their platform. Members that violate the policy are threatened with the following possible actions:
* Listing cancellation
* Forfeit of eBay fees on cancelled listings
* Limits on account privileges
* Loss of PowerSeller status
* Account suspension
WE, the eBay community are hereby petitioning eBay leadership to completely lift the ban of Google Checkout immediately. Google Checkout makes online shopping quick and easy and the buyer information is PROTECTED.
Google Checkout affords the buyer to buy items from stores across the web, in just a few steps and has been accepted by many of the internet's largest retailers.
Google Checkout has been proven to be a safe and secure payment gateway and this unwarranted and unnecessary ban MUST to be lifted immediately.
