No, I hate it because it defrauded me in 2005.

I'll pay whatever the card is worth to me tomorrow after noon. 

But ebay is infested with scammers/liars/cheats, and ebay will NOT police them. In a real auction, they'd be 86'd; on ebay you just get solicitations to have them write a snail-mail (for a fee) to the seller instead of an e-mail that the seller won't answer.
