eBay DISCRIMINATES against Blacks!

Unlike eBay - I do not discriminate against blacks, hispanics, the handicapped or seniors on low/fixed incomes.

eBay has chosen to deny these minorities from making purchases on eBay by mandating that they have a credit card, debit card or a PayPal account.

In effect, this action blocks purchases by low/fixed income people by requiring them to comply with an unrealistic demand. A quick look at eBay's recent 'ban the lower class from eBay' policy changes: HyperTextTransferProtocol://pages.ebay.com/help/pay/methods.html

Note the contradiction that Paper Payments (money order, personal check, cashier's check) for small end items are a threat to the community BUT when it comes to making high end purchases like autos, trucks, commercial properties - etc. then Paper Payments are no threat at all.

Let us face facts - - - if the blacks, hispanics, the UD, the handicapped or seniors on low/fixed incomes (a.k.a. the lower class) had credit cards and such they wouldn't be shopping on eBay in the first place!

Per eBay policy - Paper Payments are welcome, provided that you pick the item up.

You MUST schedule your eBay mandated pick up time at least 72 hours before you win an item.

Acceptable pick up time is: Wednesday between 23:59 hours and 24:00 hours ONLY at a place on my choosing. Because if you people that use paper payments methods are too scary & dangerous for the interenet - per eBay the all knowing - well, then I am justified in my cautions.

With the economy being the way it is you may find that you must cancel your pick up -

No problem.

To cancel your eBay mandated pick up arrangement and to have your item shipped to your door - you will need to cancel at least 72 hours before placing your 1st bid.

Message me if you have any questions.
