AND : This is PROOF PayPal is Definitely NOT a bank.
Real Banks NEVER NEVER EVER have "glitches".  EVER.

@the end, it's still 1000 times better than managed payments.   I've had PP forever,  and can count on one hand the glitches, I'm on MP since July and have had over 10 glitches, haven't received any payouts in less than 4 days....
will take PP over MP any day......

Dear fashionista;
You have not experienced STRIPE Payments.
The sooner Ebay executes STRIPE Payments, the happier we'll all be.
"Managed Payments" is just a way for strangers to get your information.
And an excuse to hold your dough.
With STRIPE Payments, you would go to your selling dashboard, choose "Connect to Stripe Payments", enter NON CRITICAL information and VOILA !
We're all set to get prosperous   :o)

Nobody on eBay will probably ever get to experience STRIPE payments. There is nothing for eBay to gain by offering it ......

@fashionista - I have the same experience as you, using PP ''forever,'' and only ONE ''glitch'' but it really wasn't because I was caught up with an item sold to someone whose account apparently had been hacked. PP found in my favor and was right there through the entire experience. YEARS ago and nothing except HELP ever since.

The latest was last year when eBay seller tried to cheat me out of $25 postage I paid to return an item (instead of going through eBay!!! and causing him incredible grief).  PP was right there with suggestions (wait until the CHECK he sent you -- for the original price but NOT the return postage I paid --  clears, so he can't put a stop payment on it)

This was an item he agreed I could return for a full refund (he even had a new buyer waiting, he said). I had evidence the listing was misrepresented. He sent me a check for my full original purchase price including shipping, BUT refused to reimburse me the $25 return shipping I paid out of pocket (instead of going through eBay which would have dinged him more), meaning he would make $25 PROFIT on return of a misrepresented item. I used the contact information on his check and called his bank to make sure the check cleared, as PP suggested, before filing a PP claim against him, and PP was there every step of the way. They awarded me $25 out of his account.

But that said -- I have never used PP for anything (like shipping / postage) other than a bank/payment function.  

Saddest, I could not post Feedback on eBay. Once a returned item transaction is finished, there is no opportunity to post feedback -- of ANY kind.
