Check out their next scam. THey are going to offer Shops on their site Oh well right? Check this out they are MAKING people that want to have their web site part of the new shops sign up for business or premier account understandable right? But also MAKING people buy in to their little money market scam. You have not choice in the matter you MUST sign up for the money market scam or you can't have your site listed. Does anyone know isn't there laws in this country AGAINST this. Let me know what you think. OH! By the way take a look at ALL the fine print of the money market they are offering YOU WILL BE AT RISK TO LOSE ALL OF YOU MONEY IN YOUR PAY PAL ACCOUNT "they do that now anyway don't they?" HAPPY HOLIDAYS TO ALL

Why bother with them anyway!
Don't ride on a dying horse. You may only get crushed when the horse falls over and dies.

To all and sundry:

Don't just sit here and complain, DO something if you
don't like what an E-business is doing, or they'll continue to think of all 'Net surfers and shoppers as
sheep to be blindly led!

A letter sent to PayPal on this most recent mess:

Gentlemen:

I want a listing in PayPal Shops, but I am sure that it is ILLEGAL for you to require a listee to open a Money Market account in order to do so, especially an UNINSURED MM acct. Just let me consult the financial legal sector, and I'll get back to you with my findings, as I've always been happy with you until X.com closed
out to concentrate on your functions rather than
banking.

I am on SSI, and trying to start a home-based business. I DO NOT HAVE A MONEY MARKET INVESTMENT LEVEL OF INCOME!!!
THIS IS, IN ITSELF, A FORM OF DISCRIMINATION; WATCH YOURSELVES, BECAUSE AUCTION FORUM OWNERS AND POSTERS TO
SAME ARE ALREADY COMPLAINING TO HIGH HEAVEN........having dropped the only safety net you had, (X.com) can you afford to make your member community angry now???? Please think on this, if you wish to survive as a business; or is this merely someone's tax shelter that has now become a Cash Cow, and therefore a liability???? Sorry that I know so much, both about the auction community at large, and Finance in general; but did you think ALL 'Net watchers and surfers were sheep to be blindly led?


I AM NOT, HAVE NEVER BEEN, NOR WILL I EVER BE.........THAT IS WHY I AM STARSEEKER!!!!



Get it together, or lose it fast,
