On this forum, they would be the least perverse pecadillos, hardly worth mentioning.

So in what war did the Perverse Pecadillos fight and whose side were they on?

It was the war of Elizabeth of Braganza's stockings, stolen by some weirdo from the house of Castille.

I think if you say, "House of Castile" then "some wierdo" is redundant.

In fairness, if you're a member of this forum, that's pretty much a given (in very much a "if you're not part of the solution, you're part of the problem" sort of way).

Perhaps nobody on here smokes miniature cigars any more?

I sell frequently on EBay when work is scarce - and I was unaware of this.

So long as I don't have to post before payment clears I don't see it as a huge problem... except for accounting purposes because I simply emptied my PayPal acocunt every so often (and declared income) which is easier than keeping tabs of every last item.

But I did also use the monies to buy my toys....

Ultimately taking the eBay fees hike and loss of Paypal fees into consideration it seems sellers end up marginally better off though.

The overall fees will be a bit less but the chance of a data breech and someone getting hold of your details and cash is doubled :(
