Because a significant number of lower-end pay-out recipients will not bother to deposit/cash the check or will simply forget about it and it won't get cashed. The odds are better that eBay will keep their money than if they had to direct-deposit into everyone's PP accounts. Part of the settlement agreement was probably an intent to set it up this way so that eBay could 1. look like they were acting in good faith by sending out payment and 2. in fact, do just the opposite by gambling that many recipients will not bother to/forget to deposit/cash their checks.

Re: Ebay class action suit
 

That's why each check has an expiration date on it. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/naughty.gif[/img]

Re: Ebay class action suit
 

Mine is cashed and in my pocket...

They must work for the government. Send out a $.52 check that cost $.44 to mail and who knows how many dollars just to write the check....... They should be able to pocket a lot of money with this way of thinking.... [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/hmmm.gif[/img]

Re: Ebay class action suit
 

The cost of mailing the checks is a tax deduction, a business write-off. EBay isn't that stupid, they know how to take advantage of not only the legal system but also the tax code, as does any corporation. The tax code was not written by common folks, it was written by businessmen and their lobbyists and that's why it's so thick and chock-full of mind-numbing loopholes and dodges. (Not Dodges, dodges!)

Re: Ebay class action suit
 

Ok, I just got my check. I was stunned to see a check for $0.27!!! Twenty seven cents!?!?! I know they do bulk mailing mail rates but, a stamp costs more! I'm gonna take a picture of it before I cash it.

Re: Ebay class action suit
 

I received a check for $0.09. I think I'll frame it.
