The other day, my son (who is 11) discovered the joys of reading "Dave Barry".  
So we logged onto eBay found a lot of 10 books closing in a couple of hours.  
We put in a bid and won (10 books for $11 + $7 shipping) !!  I clicked on the 
the paypal button and about 30 seconds later money transferred from the bank 
account (yes, my bank account) to someone, somewhere out in the ether.  
Yesterday, a box arrived with my books arrived and I left positive feedback for 
the seller.

That was awful!!! 

eBay and paypal totally suck.

I don't like what I am seeing. First you all divide into two camps over whether the buyers premium should be included in the price, and then one side calls those who disagree morons, and then you all again divide into two camps over whether that is an appropriate insult!
 
I understand you all have the right to do and say whatever you want, but is this not very counter-productive? No one is changing sides, and no one is convincing anyone of anything, and people are getting more heated.
 
Remember J.R., that prolific poster who got in a big fight on these boards and then was never seen again (and of course the person who got into it with him almost never posts either)? Is this going to be an instant replay? Does MoPo have so many regular posters that it can afford to lose one or two of the best ones? I think not.
 
Imagine the shape our world would be in if entire countries acted the way MoPo members did in this silly affair. Oh wait, they DO act that way, so look at what bad shape the world is in, and decide if you want a microcosm of that here.
 
If you want to split the list down the middle discussing something that no one will ever change their minds on, why not discuss gun control or abortion, or gay marriage?
 
I like MoPo, and I can't help  noticing the number of people drops little by little every week, and I can't help wondering if topics like these don't contribute to that.
 
If you need something to unify behind, why don't we discuss how awful eBay is?
