I signed up a few weeks ago.  They are currently not offering funding 
the account via credit cards, though, that is somewhere down the road. 
Rumor has it that eBay will pull your listings if you mention them and 
get caught, though I've not seen a definitive example of that, and RME 
is not explicitly prohibited in the example services excluded in eBay 
policies.

Also, it's limited to US residents at the moment, as well.
