Apparently ebay has gotten into the loan business

I had a message in my ebay account today advertising their loan service. "Build your business with a loan built for you" was the headline. Borrow money to buy more inventory, I suppose. I guess that's not really so unusual. Plenty of businesses use debt in that way.

Interesting, but I'd think if I was running a small business I'd probably have access to lenders with more favorable terms than Ebay could deliver

Maybe. Obviously eBay is just a front for whatever lenders they’ve partnered with so the terms might not be bad. I have no idea.
