I couldn't agree more.  I've had growing objects to the way eBay handles 
things.  When buyers refuse to pay or sellers refuse to ship I leave 
negative feedback.  they of course leave retaliatory negative feedback.  
Ebay will not delete feedback.  They will just refer you to their Fair 
Trade department. that department is Mutual feedback withdrawal form. 
the result being that you never get your money back (or your item) but 
you can erase your bad rating... and the bad buyer/seller keeps their 
pristine rating.

I only buy via paypal so I can get my money back.  And as a seller I 
only accept paypal. It's what I recommend to anyone that intends to use 
eBay.
