Community Values

eBay is a community where we encourage open and honest communication between all of our members. We believe in the following five basic values.

• We believe people are basically good.
• We believe everyone has something to contribute.
• We believe that an honest, open environment can bring out the best in people.
• We recognise and respect everyone as a unique individual.
• We encourage you to treat others the way that you want to be treated.

eBay is committed to these values. And we believe that our community members should also honour these values -- whether buying, selling, or chatting. We hope these values will help you better understand the eBay community.
