NEW PAYPAL AUDIOGON PAYMENT RULES


Hello.  I just went through the previously pleasant procedure of listing a pair of loudspeakers on this site.  Since joining the community five or six years ago I have logged over 100 transactions,  mostly using Paypal as a method of payment.When I arrived on the payment section of my listing I was directed to register with paypal as a merchant - which I am not - or register with Audiogon as a dealer - also which I am not.

I cannot even list my item as a COD sale because of the new guidlines.

I sent an email to Audiogon regarding this and the reply did little to resolve a very serious dilemma for private individuals.
Anyone experience this as well?

Pretend that that the word "merchant" is not there. Replace it with "audiophile" or "music lover" if you like. Do what Al says, I just did and guess what? I found that PayPal already had assigned me one and I don't feel like a merchant at all! After all, it is just an ID number for added security, not a merchant badge.
