Sending offers

One to watch for when using the "send offers" facility. You get to choose discount type (offer amount, percentage off or amount off). Up until now mine has always defaulted to offer amount. Today I did not notice it was selecting them apparantly rand...

late payout?

Anyone's payouts late arriving in banks today? I can't get through to ebay. Usually my payouts arrive 5-6am, still in progress at 8.30am. Wonder if it's site wide, or just me?

Interesting idea, particularly having regard to distance selling regs. What hacks me off big time however is the number of sellers who immediately hit the despatch button but then don't actually despatch for a long period of time afterwards! Not good...
