Advantages: It is just great to have an International Internet Auction

Disadvantages: They seem a law apart

There was a comment by someone about safety on PayPal. All I would like to say - please read VERY CAREFULLY - all of the small printing. I know, they are clever, it is not easy to find the small printing on their sites.
Despite promises of money protection and refund by eBay - PLEASE, be careful - they only apply on Friday the 31st and if both of your grandparents are alive. Did you know that negative feedbacks are taken into consideration when refunds are claimed? Now you do!
TRUST is just as useless as eBay and PayPal.
How many times sellers have taken payments from unconfirmed buyers? and what is the percentage of unconfirmed buyers? I have encountered some 80% so far.
eBay is a Great site - Good idea but they must comply with International laws and trading standards (consumer credit act and so on) They don't at all at the moment. Customer support doesn't exist and it all goes well until something goes wrong.
There is a petition on this site - good idea to sign it

Summary: Take eBay with a pinch of salt - don't touch PayPal
