Hi. I sale a Book on the Ebay and accept Bitcoin.

If you interests - http://cgi.ebay.de/Thomas-Huber-Ogre-Gipfel-Traume-/170608236377?pt=Sach_Fachb%C3%BCcher&hash=item27b90b1759

I also have contact the Support from Ebay and asked for the official acceptance of the Bitcoins and I'm wait for a reply from the support.

If they agree I will send you 2000 BTC Smiley

E-bay won't agree because it's against their policy of requiring a payment method that is reversible.  The ebay rating system is currently for show for that reason as the buyer will always receive their money back no matter if they practice due diligence or not.

I wonder in the future would they not just offer their own escrow service if they were to accept Bitcoin. This would achieve the same effect I think.

Still, it is obvious they are not going to accept it for another (probably long) while. But we have biddingpond anyway. Smiley
