We are happy to announce a few policies which shall help make the site safer. These policies are:

Safe Payments Policy
Safety and convenience are at the core of eBay’s policies toward payments. This policy is designed to promote safe online shopping, and to encourage online payment methods that are safe, easy to use, reliable, and offer high levels of protection for users. The policy also attempts to preserve some flexibility for users that still prefer offline payment methods

Not permitted on eBay.in :
Sellers may not solicit buyers to mail cash. Sellers may not ask buyers to send cash through instant cash transfer services (non-bank, point-to-point cash transfers) such as Western Union. Finally, sellers may not request payment through online payment methods not specifically permitted in this policy.

Third Party Endorsements
Third-party endorsements of eBay members can create an unsafe marketplace hence this policy has been formulated. Manipulations of eBay’s reputation system (feedback system, PowerSeller program, etc.) may confuse or mislead buyers, which also can create an unsafe environment.

Not permitted under this policy

1. Seal that endorses a seller, for example “Trusted seller” or “Reliable seller”
2. Seal that manipulates eBay feedback, for example "100% positive feedback in authentic watches"

Item Location Misrepresentation
Most sellers in India represent the item location correctly and it’s a simple and straight forward policy which is as follows "Sellers must accurately represent the location from which their item will be shipped in the item location field".

We request our sellers to have a look at the policy pages by clicking on the above links.

Sellers can discuss the above policies on the discussion thread we created for Policy Violation Consequences - http://forums.ebay.in/thread.jspa?threadID=600000290&start=0

The eBay Team
