I came here Sunday evening and couldn't log in but was referred to accept the new terms, so I thought that was harmless. Once I did that my password was rejected so I signed in with facebook and soon received an email saying my new account was now active and a new username and password were assigned to me and the offer for the lifetime account was included. Since I am a lifetime member already, I sure didn't want to pay again. Neither did I want to loose the 121 listings that were active so I sent a message to Ebid through the help button and this morning my original account is active and the listings are there. So my panic is over!
Thank you once again to the administration for coming through for me!
