Selling with eBay Plus

[lemony_gem_toys]

has anyone discussed any issue with eBay Plus criteria before?  While we understand how to qualify for ebay plus badge, it would seem that ebay applies these criteria differently to other retailers.   One of the criteria is to offer free domestic postage.  Retailers such as Big W and ebgames are able to have the ebay plus badge on listings without offering free postage.  I have tried to speak to ebay about the unfair trading terms and they said that Big W has different terms.  

I think it is "unfair trading".   Ebay plus badge has criteria and should be applied the same to all.

Any thoughts?

Enter into a private contract/agreement with ebay, if you want to play on the same field.

Become a multi million dollar company and you'll be able to get special ebay privileges too.

Ebay plus is used by 0.0000001% of ebay users (not exact stats I made that number up, but I'd stand by it's accuracy)

Ebay Plus ropes you into supplying Express postage at a loss.

I actively avoid ebay plus by deliberately not qualifying.  It's of no value whatsoever
