OT: StupidBay

I'll never get to the "checkout experience" because my # of purchases will
go down.
Do you believe this?

Faster, more secure checkout experience

Paper payments end this October

Beginning late October 2008, all items listed on eBay.com must be paid for
using one of 
the following approved payment options:

     * Direct credit or debit card payment via a merchant credit card
account
     * PayPal
     * ProPay
     * Payment on pick-up

Paper payment methods such as checks and money orders will no longer be
accepted on eBay.com.

By January 2009, all approved electronic payment methods will be
integrated into eBay 
checkout. For example, buyers will be able to enter their credit card
number directly into 
eBay checkout, and the payment will be routed to the seller's Internet
merchant account or 
to their PayPal account.

Please note that the new payments policy will not apply to the vehicles
categories in 
Motors, capital equipment categories in Business & Industrial, Mature
Audiences and Real 
Estate.
