Stace, perhaps my Ebay bashing in my original post was to extreme.

What i was trying to point was the "one bad apple" effect scammers have on Ebay's reputation. Google does not have that problem to the same extent, as all Google does is point people in the right direction - Ebay offers people stuff on a plate.

Thus, any negative publicity caused by a single seller on Ebay, effects the whole brand.

And with all due respect, my personal opinion on the matter is neither right or wrong, it simply just is.
