It took me less than 3 seconds on Google to find 19 other auction sites I can do my business at -- I shouldn't have to put up with this kid of crap from anyone taking money from me. I sent them a letter back regarding my requirements for reinstatement -- an apology for insulting my intelligence and impugning my character. I can live a long and happy life without eBay -- how many more people like me can eBay live without?
