LESS money in the charity's pocket. [/quote][quote author=sneakymagenta link=topic=3417.msg12557#msg12557 date=1145328804] Pay Pal is the charity. [/quote] You're both NAYSAYERS! You're EBAY HATERS! eBay would NEVER try to use charity auctions as a way to boost interest in its own payment service! :blinkie: On second thought, eBay did do just that after 9/11 with its Auctions for America. I knew this announcement reminded me of something.  Quote:Many eBay sellers criticized the charity auction from the beginning, charging that eBay was taking credit for sellers' donations and was using Auction for America as a tool to promote its proprietary Billpoint payment system. eBay required buyers to use a modified version of Billpoint to pay for all Auction for America items. http://news.com.com/eBays+charity+auctio...01366.html

Auction for Billpoint was an Ebay scam [/quote] I stopped accepting Billpoint because of the whole Auction for America fiasco. It was crystal clear eBay's primary goal in that auction was to promote eBay. |

Re: eBay helps PayPal in a charitable sort of way....
When I donate to charity I prefer to donate directly to a charity rather than going through a 3rd party like eBay Giving Works/Mission Fish/United Way who are going to take a big chunk of my donation to give bonuses to their boinktard overpaid executives.
