Dan, Thank you for your well presented message. IMHO this does relate for the reasons you've stated. I am currently setting up my financial infrastructure to sell, including on eBay. I'm afraid I'll

As I understand it, eBay will no longer provide your account information to the buyer at all. Instead the buyer pays eBay, which acts as an escrow, and will eventually pay you (or not). The number of

I don¡¯t necessarily see this as a problem. Over here in France, and I think it¡¯s the same within the EU, once the money is in your bank account, there is no way for anyone but yourself to withdraw

Re: 7603 voltages ok but no trace
I realized that I didn¡¯t see any CRT filament/heater glow in this newer 7603 so I put the working PSU in the other 7603 and in that scope I see the CRT is glowing. I can see a dot on the CRT screen

Ebay sold off PayPal *years* ago so I'm not a bit surprised to see that they've done this. Paypal also (at least used to) required that sellers link their PP accounts to a bank account so I don't see
