I just went to put in a $4.00 add and now I have to give my whole financial history.....


.......what the heck ? I am not putting my personal account information on this site  ...bad enough they take a % of what you sell YOUR equipment for ........but now also telling me how I have to pay for it and how the buyer has to pay for ......well. .I get it that is some cases it is safer....but I have done a lot of sales just by a personal check. I just want to post a cheap $4.00 add.......unbelievable.  Pay-Pal what a rip off that is !

Thanks John ..... and I have been looking into US Audiomart. I am still furious over Audiogon charging / taking a % of what YOU sold your equipment for. I will look into and thanks.    
 I find no problem with a 2% selling fee on Audiogon. It's Ebay's fees that I find outrageous.

And btw, US Audiomart is becoming more widely known. I've had good results.
I don't know why but, I have loyalty to Audiogon and always list items first there. But, recently I added the item to US Audiomart  and sold the item on US Audiomart fairly quickly.
What is an 'add' ? Do you mean 'ad' as in advert? Or do you mean Attention Deficit Disorder? 

Dude - if you can't swing $4, you're in the wrong hobby.
