Yes indeed - and *thank* *you*.

In the above submission 
(http://www.accc.gov.au/content/index.phtml/itemId/719618/fromItemId/729974),


eBay claims that "There are no other feasible options for payment of 
Digital Items through the DDG service"

Firstly, this was not the claim made by eBay in their notice to sellers 
(http://pages.ebay.com.au/useprotection/changes.html).
So now we can 
potentially add "deceptive and misleading conduct".

eBay is claiming that BPay, Paymate, Mastercard and Visa are unsafe 
payment methods....and on that basis, eBay want to force the use of 
Paypal by their customers. This is a different argument to the above and 
different to the arguments presented by all of the ****lls in this group.

I note how the ****lls keep bringing up the issue that the ACCC will not 
pay any attention to this issue.

Let's see if they pay attention when the Big four banks, Aussie post, 
Paymate, Mastercard and Visa become aware that eBay is saying that their 
payment methods are not safe.
