This. Used to be all about Paypal and that's when I stopped dealing with eBay.Hmmm.... Maybe they've relaxed that rule. I do remember it being a rule, for years, but obviously things change.
I just looked and they still don't allow checks or money orders, for what that's worth.
Looks like they let up on that, but I still won't have anything to do with them. I'll stick with either Craigslist and deal locally, or deal with a network of trusted people like Talkbass.
