Easier said than done: Stop supporting the corporations. Do not buy from 
Amazon. Buy your groceries from a neighborhood store and your movie posters 
from small sellers with their own website and/or brick-and-mortar shops.

Frankly, this is what you get when you lay yourself in bed with The 
Corporation. All the empty suits care for is money and more money. 

Just for the record, at this point 85% of the groceries sold in Germany are 
distributed by FOUR corporations. And these four will not stop before they own 
100% of the market, while trying to eat each other on the way.

If we all keep supporting ebay, Amazon, and Heritage, in a few years from now, 
independent movie poster shops will be history. And let's face it: Even a 'big' 
seller like Bruce Hershenson will be no match for the monetary power of these 
three, not to mention small businesses like mine.

Now I don't know about you, but that's not a world I would not want to live in. 
Still, if we all continue the way we do, we won't have anyone to blame but 
ourselves.

Jeff,

Again, there is no opt-out option.  Once your account is targeted by ebay, you 
have absolutely no choice as ebay will not allow you to sell anymore.

According to Ebay, all sellers will eventually be required to convert to 
Managed Payment.

2020-12-03 Thread Moviemem Original Movie Posters
Managed Payments is certainly not an improvement for sellers. For those of us 
who have to collect GST or Sales Tax, etc it is an accounting nightmare at the 
moment. There is no option to opt out of Managed Payments. You either accept it 
or you won't be able to sell on eBay.

As for VAT on sales to the UK, I spoke to an eBay rep about it a few days ago 
and they had no idea how it worked and couldn't find anyone who could help.
