"We're increasing the time for buyers to file merchandise disputes (Item Not Received and Significantly Not as Described) from 45 days to 180 days."


half a year? seriously? why?

Great news for buyers! Bad news for sellers. UGH

45 days is too short, i've had international parcels take 8 weeks before so i thought maybe upping it to 60 days would be a logical step forward.

but half a year? the fuck? this is gonna make sellers' lives hell.

its completely crazy

they are treating all sellers as though they are business sellers, selling new items.
for the normal average part time seller of 2nd hand items its utterly ridiculous

It's crazy either way IMO.

So there are other options.

Such as Swipe, at least for me. That means I'll have to take credit card numbers though, but they charge about the same as Paypal.

I don't want someone coming after me a half year later, that's insane.

yo serious?

I get it being a little longer, but that's really excessive.

My pedals have a lifetime warranty, but the shit thing is, this will mean that some people will file a dispute rather than just email me and let me repair their pedal if need.

Also, can you seriously wait 5 months before saying an item arrived broken or not as described? How lazy as shit can you be?

PayPal decisions made in a board room by rich dudes with little to no experience using PayPal?

Yea that's insane. Plus what if people claim their shit isn't right after 5 months and it's their damn fault? Ridiculous.

Fuck paypal. I'm going to start using Google Wallet. So fucking insane. I hope they go broke.

Yeah, fuck paypal.
Really curious strategy "Let's get more buyers by fucking over the sellers, you know, the people who actually make us money, as much as possible."

Am I reading this google wallet thing right? There's no fees for bank/balance transfers?

Yeah, google wallet really needs to become the new standard.

paypal? more like payandthenfuckoveryourpal.

Venmo is a good alternate.

Just don't fuck up.

venmo, owned by braintree, owned by ebay/paypal

I'm not selling anything anymore via Paypal unless gift. That's it.

Do any of you know about a decent alternative that widely used? I've searched the internet for one with no success.
