What is your experience ?
A few times I have considered joining the Ebay community, but when I read the terms and conditions, especially those regarding personal data storage, I am rather put off.
The conditions state (or stated when I last looked), that personal data will be stored on servers where the laws regarding protection and security of personal data are weaker than those in the UK, and I don't think that the laws in the UK are tough enough either.
Ebay own PayPal now, I think, and my credit card details have been compromised more than once using PayPal to pay for goods on-line, in the UK too.
I have had bad experiences with PayPal, they do not seem to be interested in consumer rights as they are paid by vendors.
