Change Summary
eBay's User Agreement has been substantially stripped down. The document previously contained a detailed table of contents and comprehensive sections covering policies, fees, vehicle sales, and enforcement procedures. The updated version now consists of only 4 sentences focused on account verification requirements. This appears to be a dramatic removal of accessible policy documentation rather than a rewrite of underlying terms.

236Fees and Costs Payment of all filing, administration, and arbitrator fees will be governed by the applicable NAM fee schedules (the " Fee Schedules "), but may be reapportioned between the parties in accordance with this Agreement to Arbitrate, as follows: if you complied with the Informal Dispute Resolution requirements in Section 1 of this Agreement and the value of the relief sought in the Dispute is $10,000 or less, at your request eBay will pay all filing, administration, and arbitrator fees associated with the arbitration.Removed
237The parties shall bear their own attorneys’ fees and costs in arbitration unless the arbitrator finds that either the substance of the Dispute or the relief sought in the Demand was frivolous or was brought for an improper purpose (as measured by the standards set forth in Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11(b)).Removed

240NAM shall administer all batches concurrently, to the extent possible.Removed
241All parties agree that Demands are of a "substantially similar nature" if they arise out of or relate to the same event or factual scenario and raise the same or similar legal issue(s) and seek the same or similar relief.Removed

246This Batch Arbitration provision shall in no way be interpreted as authorizing a class, collective and/or representative arbitration or action of any kind, except as expressly set forth in this provision, and nothing about the Batch Arbitration process will preclude any party from participating in any arbitration administered according to that process.Removed
247Severability Except as provided in Section 19.B.3 ("Waiver of Class or Other Non-Individualized Relief"), if any part or parts of this Agreement to Arbitrate (other than Section 19.B.7 ("Batch Arbitration")) are found under the law to be invalid or unenforceable, then such specific part or parts shall be of no force and effect and shall be severed and the remainder of the Agreement to Arbitrate shall continue in full force and effect.Removed
248However, if Section 19.B.7 ("Batch Arbitration") of this Agreement to Arbitrate is found under the law to be invalid or unenforceable then, in that case, the entire Agreement to Arbitrate shall be void, and the parties agree that all Disputes will be heard in the state or federal courts located in Salt Lake County, Utah as required in Section 19.C. You further agree that any Dispute that you have with eBay as detailed in this Agreement to Arbitrate must be initiated within the applicable statute of limitation for that claim or controversy, or it will be forever time barred.Removed

477This section does not prevent you or eBay from participating in a class-wide settlement of claims.Removed
478Arbitration Procedures Arbitration is more informal than a lawsuit in court.Removed

507If the parties are unable to agree upon an arbitrator within 35 days of delivery of the Demand, then NAM will appoint the arbitrator in accordance with the NAM Rules.Removed
508Fees and Costs Payment of all filing, administration, and arbitrator fees will be governed by the applicable NAM fee schedules (the " Fee Schedules "), but may be reapportioned between the parties in accordance with this Agreement to Arbitrate, as follows: if you complied with the Informal Dispute Resolution requirements in Section 1 of this Agreement and the value of the relief sought in the Dispute is $10,000 or less, at your request eBay will pay all filing, administration, and arbitrator fees associated with the arbitration.Removed
509The parties shall bear their own attorneys’ fees and costs in arbitration unless the arbitrator finds that either the substance of the Dispute or the relief sought in the Demand was frivolous or was brought for an improper purpose (as measured by the standards set forth in Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11(b)).Removed
510To the extent, following a presentation on the merits, on its own motion or a party’s, and after affording a reasonable opportunity to respond, an arbitrator determines that a party who commenced arbitration did not bring its claim(s) consistent with counsel’s Certification and the standards set forth in Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11(b), the arbitrator may, as part of its award, impose sanctions by ordering that the initiating party reimburse the responding party for all arbitration costs and arbitrators’ fees the responding party incurred under the Fee Schedule.Removed
511Batch Arbitration To increase the efficiency of administration and resolution of arbitrations, you and eBay agree that in the event that there are 25 or more individual Demands of a substantially similar nature filed against eBay by or with the assistance of the same law firm, group of law firms, or organizations (" Claimant’s Counsel "), within a reasonably proximate period of time, for example, a 90 day period, NAM shall (1) administer the arbitration demands in batches of 100 Demands per batch (or, if between 25 and 99 individual Demands are filed, a single batch of all those Demands, and, to the extent there are less than 100 Demands remaining after the batching described above, a final batch consisting of the remaining Demands); (2) appoint one arbitrator for each batch; and (3) provide for the resolution of each batch on a consolidated basis with one set of filing and administrative fees due per batch, one procedural calendar, one hearing (if any) in a place to be selected by Claimant’s Counsel or, if Claimant’s Counsel does not have a preference, by the arbitrator, and one final award, which will provide for any and all relief to which the arbitrator determines each individual party is entitled (" Batch Arbitration ").Removed
512NAM shall administer all batches concurrently, to the extent possible.Removed
513All parties agree that Demands are of a "substantially similar nature" if they arise out of or relate to the same event or factual scenario and raise the same or similar legal issue(s) and seek the same or similar relief.Removed
514To the extent the parties disagree on the application of the Batch Arbitration process, the disagreeing party shall advise NAM, and NAM shall appoint a sole standing Procedural Arbitrator or, should the circumstances so require, an Emergency Arbitrator, according to the NAM Rules, to determine the applicability of the Batch Arbitration process (the Procedural Arbitrator or Emergency Arbitrator, the " Administrative Arbitrator ").Removed

518This Batch Arbitration provision shall in no way be interpreted as authorizing a class, collective and/or representative arbitration or action of any kind, except as expressly set forth in this provision, and nothing about the Batch Arbitration process will preclude any party from participating in any arbitration administered according to that process.Removed
519Severability Except as provided in Section 19.B.3 ("Waiver of Class or Other Non-Individualized Relief"), if any part or parts of this Agreement to Arbitrate (other than Section 19.B.7 ("Batch Arbitration")) are found under the law to be invalid or unenforceable, then such specific part or parts shall be of no force and effect and shall be severed and the remainder of the Agreement to Arbitrate shall continue in full force and effect.Removed
520However, if Section 19.B.7 ("Batch Arbitration") of this Agreement to Arbitrate is found under the law to be invalid or unenforceable then, in that case, the entire Agreement to Arbitrate shall be void, and the parties agree that all Disputes will be heard in the state or federal courts located in Salt Lake County, Utah as required in Section 19.C. You further agree that any Dispute that you have with eBay as detailed in this Agreement to Arbitrate must be initiated within the applicable statute of limitation for that claim or controversy, or it will be forever time barred.Removed
