If you want spam, use the rec.. it is just terrible because the addresses are not hidden at All. The audience is also a bit smaller... and you can not run an auction..I have used eBay just once. I ordered a manual from someone who offers reprints. I did not bid on it but used the "buy now" option. At the same time I began to set up a Pay Pal account but never finished setting it up because I found the seller would simply charge a credit card. Ever since this transaction I've received tons of fisching letters perporting to come from eBay or Pay Pal. I've blocked some of them but I still get some. Some look quite authentic but others have obvious spelling and grammatical errors that are a tip off. Of course, I never answer any of them. Evidently, eBay does not do a very good job of protecting private information sent to them.The best reason is the first. spam... Frank Filippone red735i@xxxxxxxxxxxxx
