Updates to eBay User Agreement (agreement to Arbitration unless you opt out)

• SonicSoul 14y ago
  I got this agreement update in my email today, but there is no mention how to opt out of below. "Unless you opt-out: (1) you will only be permitted to pursue claims against eBay on an individual basis, not as part of any class or representative action or proceeding and (2) you will only be permitted to seek relief (including monetary, injunctive, and declaratory relief) on an individual basis" is this standard?

    Standard not to mention it? Not sure. But it's referenced in other places of the user agreement, see below. Pretty much exactly like the pay-pal opt-out. Opt-Out Procedure IF YOU ARE A NEW EBAY USER, YOU CAN CHOOSE TO REJECT THIS AGREEMENT TO ARBITRATE ("OPT-OUT") BY MAILING US A WRITTEN OPT-OUT NOTICE ("OPT-OUT NOTICE"). THE OPT-OUT NOTICE MUST BE POSTMARKED NO LATER THAN 30 DAYS AFTER THE DATE YOU ACCEPT THE USER AGREEMENT FOR THE FIRST TIME. YOU MUST MAIL THE OPT-OUT NOTICE TO EBAY INC., ATTN: LITIGATION DEPARTMENT, 173 WEST ELECTION ROAD, DRAPER, UT 84020.

    Digging I found the form you have to print out and mail in: http://pages.ebay.com/policies/arbitrate-optout.html http://pages.ebay.com/policies/arbitrate-optout.html Though it says "For new eBay users, the Opt-Out Notice must be postmarked no later than 30 days after the date you accept the eBay User Agreement for the first time. It's your responsibility to mail the Opt-Out Notice by the applicable deadline."
