I have been seeing a lot about anything points on eBay and PayPal lately. Do any of you offer them? Are they worth it? I would like to hear what others think of the whole idea.
Thanks

I (briefly) offered Anything Points on my listings. I stopped. Why? Because while they doesn't seem that expensive, you have to pay for the Anything Points whether or not your customer ever redeems them.
Yikes! That means there are probably millions of paid-for Anything Points just languishing.
Applause to the marketing genius at eBay who thought this one up. Probably the same guy who invented pre-paid calling cards.
I could not determine that offering Anything Points drove more people to my listings. So I stopped.

thank you for the info...how much do they charge you for them and do you have to buy a lump at one time or just as you reward them?

I joined but never used them - I thought I was going to get points for paying my ebay bill with paypal but I was wrong on that. I don't pay anything?? Do I??
I get a statement but it always says I have not earned any points
