Do You Feel Ebay Charges Too Much For Sellers???

I totally agree with you. The fees in ebay and paypal are ridiculous. Its very expensive. That is sole reason why I stopped selling in ebay now. happy mylotting!

yes I do think so it's hard to compete and still pay for the fees I don't make much on Ebay most stuffs I sold there I did it to get rid of them I know I won't make any profit there especially with tight budget this year I can't afford opening an Ebay store to get lower listing fee I do mylot to earn money to cover ebay fee but that's about it, really not much of profit to talk about I am just glad to get rid of the items by selling them

I think they could reduce the fees quite a bit. I've noticed eBay isn't really as popular as it was a few years ago. If they charged less they could probably get more sellers and thus more items available again like in the past. I've noticed the fees on Half.com are pretty bad too. It's also owned by eBay.

Fee's on ebay are being increased with a puropse, They want ebay to become a shop not an auction site this meaning they want rid of all the small sellers ( who made the site what it is today ) in order to keep the big sellers who sell only on buy it now, if oyu notice the fee changes are helping the sellers who sell on mass with buy it nows, ebay claims this is to encourage smaller sellers to do the same but it's not, small hobby sellers do not sell 10 of this and 10 of that or 100 of this and 100 of that, they sell 1 because the majority are selling from their own personal items for one reason or other. Ebays big wigs at the top are ruining ebay and in the end it will become a waste land for retail items at retail prices which is not what the majority of buyers go on there for. If anyone remembers the world before ebay it was a world where carboots ruled and second hand shops thrived then ebay popped up and people found it easier to list on there than get up early on a sunday morning or even going mooching around a second hand shop, when ebay complete it's transition to a retail site another site will have to take over but they will need to be as good and as popular, until that time comes carboots will once again be heaving with buyers and sellers and second hand shops will once again become popular for mooching around. it really is a shame, the internets biggest web site with the most traffic and they are throwing it down the pan, what a shame.

Oh yes they do...and I don't like their latest announcement about sellers only being able to charge 4.00 for shipping. The average package costs more than that to ship so either you eat the loss or add the extra cost to the price of the item and ebay makes a higher % off your sale.

Thats so weird, i was thinking the exact same thing earlier!! considering how many sellers they have they must be making an absolute fortune everyday!
