However, I hit a very troublesome roadblock in the verification process. The site asks for your PayPal account information, email address and PASSWORD! The site also wants your eBay member ID and PASSWORD! This coming from a new site that has no trust built up. Additionally, NONE of the pages are secure. Not registration, not login, nothing. NO security, no encryption. So, at least until I hear that SSL is implemented, I won’t be going back. The request for my PayPal and eBay passwords is the most disturbing part. Do the folks that run this site actually believe that the masses will entrust this sensitive data to them? I will not. -sciencefare The site looks promising, and I registered.
