I like PayPal I have no issues with PayPal. Someone pays me I get money instantly if use PayPal. I can transfer the money instantly to my bank via PayPal. I use PayPal all the time.
eBay is the problem. They don't manage funds like PayPal. eBay acts as the broker and it no longer goes through PayPal.
eBay keeping money in escrow, collecting fees on shipping, and charging 12% fee those are the issues!
And eBay's poor decision making is reflected in their financials. Fewer users fewer sales less revenue it's all going downhill. Because they're making it more difficult for sellers and less profitable for sellers. Sellers have to raise their prices by 12% and over-inflate shipping costs to cover the 12%. That causes buyers to, well, buy less. Plus sellers don't get paid in a timely manner.
