PayPal Required

Well, I've got news that PayPal is required by Sellers who are listing on selected categories on eBay UK. This is because for those categories, the Seller has to offer PayPal as the only payment mode or a payment mode along with other approved payment options.

According to eBay, this is to help reduce fraud cases and to protect both the buying and selling parties.

The categories are as follows:
Video Games
Health & Beauty
PayPal will need to be the only payment method on sales in the following category.

Video Games: Consoles
If you would like to sell in the categories affected, please sign up for a PayPal account if you do not already have one.

I am not sure if doing so would reduce fraud cases when PayPal is not the safest mode of payment for some people. Many people are nervous using PayPal no thanks to the sucky website. People have been advised not to keep too much money in their PayPal accounts and that is said with a reason.
