Read my response. I said 1) POST is the prefered method 2) using GET for a content sensitive site like an online banking site is bad. I m sure you would not want to have people book marking your session ID , or worst, the user credentials used to login and access certain pages which are private to the authorised user.
For things like ebay which will have the ID of a given item, it's alright to use GET but the problem is that you have to watch the number of characters you have in the url request.
