eBay has been making some very poor decisions lately. There seems no end to it.
The fees are one thing - but the policies that destroy sellers is another.
EXAMPLE:
On one of my trading accounts on eBay a buyer bought an item. The postage was listed clearly as was the price for insurance. Insurance is vital because of eBays insistence on accepting Paypal.
If I send an item uninsured, you decide to claim, then I loose my money. So if you pay with paypal you have to pay for insurance. Simple right?
As a service to my customers I offer a discount as the insurance is not needed if they pay with another method.
Anyway - back to the story. This buyer bought the item, decided not to pay & immediately left negative feedback.
So now I have a negative feedback that is totally false and the buyer didn't even buy the item - had no intention of it.
Ebay tell me to file a strike against him so i get my fees back - but then they remove his strike!! I have a few emails from them & they don't care - buyers can bid, leave bad feedback and not pay - then still not get a strike.
This is the last straw for me - the second last was a gambling advert on their site.
I am now off eBay. I will up my use of other better auctions sites (Oztion for one) that have more integrity.

Nothing bound by space, time or matter can know everything. To know everything you would have to know how many hairs on every animal through all time, which animal each grain of sand came from and where the oxygen molecules in every drop of water originated. Absolute knowledge (omniscience) is something reserved for the Creator!
Absolute Truth though is something even a child can know. For instance - you could teach a child over & over that an electric iron is hot. They may learn it by memory but still not know it. When the child is 30 - there is a chance that you could argue them with scientific facts & diagrams that they had been taught wrongly & that the iron was actually cold.
BUT - what if that child had one day reached out & touched the iron. His skin melted & stuck to the iron & the pain was intense? No matter how much time or convincing arguments - that person would know that the iron was hot!
What has that got to do with anything? Well only that I think it is about time you reached out & touched the iron! Is God real? stop beating around the bush & find out for yourself. Not intellectual knowledge but get burnt & KNOW FOR SURE!
