Has Ebay Gone Too Far? Is This The Last Straw?

I think Ebay is doing this to discourage all the bad sellers who charge ridiculous shipping costs to avoid Ebay fees. But doing this screws over all the good and honest sellers. Nice one Ebay.

I really hate the ebay fees. The best way to get rid of them is using a program called ZNZ. Every referral you get twenty dollars. It's a good way to get rid of fees and maybe make some extra money on the side.

Just stated selling and I got an invoice from ebay saying I owe them $68. WTF?! I knew there was the BS "insertion fees" and fees for photos...but I was simply ignorant of the 9 f'ing % final value fee. WHAT!?! And buyers expect to pay basically nothing for shipping...I have to buy the damn boxes and tape and packing peanuts and all that stuff and drive it to the post office, then pay the postage and get delivery confirmation...and my prices are already so low just so people will buy them! ahh!!

i feel bad for international sellers, they wont be making any money...i say lets buy junk and leave all low dsr's that will trigger ebay to remove those sellers shrinking the community...also after getting restricted, tell them you are another seller...then they will bust them too...repeat the process enough time and we all get invited back after being restricted!

fuck ebay!

how about posting a video that gives alternatives to ebay, instead of just complaining about it on some random video thats not doing any good?. They are doing this so people will list items w/ free shipping & they get more of a cut Istead of you getting those $1-15 no charge on shipping. Then they feature the listings w/ free shipping on thier home page to make more people wan't to list items free shipping & give them more free money.

I made a video to show how you CAN get FREE SHIPPING.

I will just offer free shipping as a seller and raise my prices to cover my fees, shipping costs, and make a profit. I only pay ebay if I successfully sell an item. Just watch the number of free shipping items explode after the new fees take affect!

Shipping costs are high and getting higher so if you have a very heavy item its not worth selling on ebay!!! so ebay and paypal gobbles up to much in fees its hard to make any money and be competitive. EBID AND CRAIGSLIST is the way to go.

for most of us these days
