eBay continues to roll out its new safe-payments policy globally. In October, eBay announced it would limit the payment methods sellers could accept in eBay listings (http://www.auctionbytes.com/cab/abn/y05/m10/i17/s01). The new policy specifically excludes cash and instant cash-transfer services such as Western Union. eBay told U.S. users it would begin enforcing the policy on January 15, 2006.
