I also perform better when clean, would you like to borrow one of my Dreamcast, any cookie issue is fixed by turning it off. Same thing with viruses, turn it off, virus is dead.

 

Seriously, it's either because you are new, the self inflicted cookie issue, or as has been mentioned, a browser setting is not set up correctly.

 

Since we do not know your settings, wishing you good luck in figuring it out.

I went searching and could find nothing about 2 step/2 factor authentication/verification in the eBay.CA help files. Could you point people (or at least me) where to look. Or nudge the person in charge of the help files for something more visible.

 


There's a brief mention of two-factor in the Signing in to your account help page. What kind of additional information would people find helpful about the 2FA login process?
