On January 29th eBay announced they:

lowered their Insertion Fee by $.05-$.80 (depending on your starting price) majority of small sellers will be $.05-$.15
lowered some of the other "extras" (that most sellers don't even use anyway)
made Gallery free (FINALLY)about time they give us a little break

BUT

INCREASED the Final Value Fee (FVF) from 5.25% to 8.75% (a 66% FVF increase) INCREASED/DOUBLED the Reserve Fee from $1.00 to $2.00 and made it NON-REFUNDABLE (used to be refundable if your reserve price was met)now, they get the fee everytime tou use it/sell it or not???
INCREASED the FVF on stores from 10% to 12%
Is taking away the seller's right to leave neutral or negative feedback to buyers who deserve it (buyers will only be able to receive positive feedback when the new policy goes into effect)No seller will ever be able to leave a NEG for any buyer, EVER AGAIN???!!!!

AND

PayPal WILL HOLD payment funds until either the buyer has left positive Feedback or 21 days have passed without a claim if they (PayPal) determine that the risk of dissatisfied buyers is high with you, the seller. So in other words, as a smaller seller, they will make you wait upto 21 days for the money you were paid for an item to show up in your Paypal account...So, customers will be able to have their items in their possession for well over 2 weeks before you have actually seen the payment in your account...
SO WHO'S HANDS IS ALL YOUR MONEY IN FOR 3 WEEKS...DRAWING INTEREST??? Hmmmmmm.....
JUAT SIT BACK AND THINK OF THAT FOR A MINUTE...

And RECENTLY Ebay In Australia Now MAKES IT MANDATORY For ALL USERS To ONLY USE PAYPAL!!!!!

PLEASE, IF YOU SUPPORT US GO TO THE LINKS ABOVE AND BELOW TO SHOW US THAT YOU CARE AND ARE WILLING TO SHOUT OUT ABOUT IT, BY SUPPORTING ALL OF OUR YOUTUBE VIDEOS AND GOING TO THE EBAY FORUMS TO REPLACE ALL THOSE WHO HAVE BEEN KICKED OFF THE BOARDS BY THE EABY WORRY WATCHERS...

  • fuck ebay

    it used to be good. now everything is "fake crap from china" this comment was deemed racist by ebay and i was given a warning

    there is no customer service when a deal goes tits up. the 21 day fund hold is a fuckin joke

    fuck ebay

  • Right now I'm struggling as I'm sure many are after leaving ebay. But, to be honest, the sell through rate has fallen SO low, that I was working my azz off for probably less than $1.50 an hour. I was GIVING away merchandise just to make a sale. I'd rather eat rice & water until another site finally takes charge...and, it's coming...it IS coming!

  • Consider the antics and business practices of eBay when you go to the polls Nov. 2, 2010. Meg Whitman is the epitome of the republican party.
