New payment rules

[orkneyfishing]

I have been a loyal eBay seller & buyer for over 20 years & for me this new system is simply crazy, the tracking system is slow & often not up-dated so the end result is no funds for my goods sold in good faith. Out of pocket on shipping costs, my items sent in good faith & now out of pocket for those also.  On top of that increasing buying costs by forcing extra fees on the items for buyer protection ?  Who ever came up with these ideas really needs to think about what they have done because for me this could well put an end on what has been a fairly good relationship with eBay very soon. I am sure I am not alone, is this a good bye or not
