Half.com is important to many people and the closure of it will harm the lives of many. Please keep it open for the sale of books. No matter how ebay is changed to try and fit a half.com style of selling it will not be better. Half.com is not broken and it should stay. Many people go to half.com that will not go to ebay. We are loosing customers and the wonderful system of listing and payments that is currently being utilized at half.com. Our customers should not have to use Paypal to use their credit and we should not be forced to use Paypal to receive credit payments. At Half.com we get our money every two weeks, we do not have to wait for payment or deal with a second party payment service. The fees are already taken out. Ebay has been great for auctions, but Half.com is better for listing and selling books. Please keep it open! Don't be the giant company that sucks up all the smaller companies and ruins them. We want to keep Half.com.
