... even if you enter in your profile settings that you accept PayPal, BillPoint, etc., your Ebay auctions are going to show at the top:
"Payment Money Order/Cashiers Checks. See item description for payment methods accepted" That's it! No mention of credit cards.
I think this adversely affected my latest listings.
Here is the workaround. In your city field, enter the electronic payment services you use. This is a long field, you will probably be able to fit them all.
Because this field appears in bold at the very top of your auction, I feel you can prevent some of those "back button" presses by bidders who prefer to pay electronically.
Hope this helps someone -- I wish someone had told me .

thanks... i wish i had known before i spent $150 to do all the features possible on an auction yesterday. I was wondering why it had so many hits but so few bids (it's dutch and i usually get a 5-10% sell through... it's about 1 1/2% on this one...
