Submission + - eBay Australia Director Flamed at ACCC Conference (smh.com.au)

ejecta writes: "The Australian Competition & Consumer Commission (ACCC) conference convened to help the competition regulator decide whether to allow eBay to force all sellers to use only PayPal for accepting electronic payments has resulted in over one thousand complaints lodged labelling the auction site "monolithic and dictatorial". eBay Australia managing director Simon Smith, visibly frustrated read from a prepared statement and would not answer any further questions. It seems like their bait & switch campaign of waving claims of increased security around whilst increasing fees in the background is failing, and failing fast."

Submission + - eBay Australia Ignores Government Pushes Paypal (smh.com.au)

ejecta writes: "Despite the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission signalling last week its intentions to reject the Paypal only policy, eBay is gearing up for a battle with the regulator with the latest push against users stating that the changes will go ahead regardless on July 15. A competition lawyer who did not want to be named stated that unless eBay produces evidence that the move will not lessen competition in the online payments market it is likely legal proceedings against eBay will follow."
