new insertions fees

[thebobhart]

how rude, does e.bay want sellers? I don't think so, postage has gone up,they want us to give free postage, and now $1.50 for a .99c auction. I have dealt on here for 8 years and got to say that's it for me..how rude e.bay. it cost you nothing to insert an item but you put up the prices..time to leave I think

Bob,  think beyond the square, 

Consider opening a basic store, $19.95 per month, and you get a heap of free listings.  if you list more than a dozen items in a month it is more cost effective even if they are BIN.

Then register a second ID, again, free listings, 40 per month at present, free Buy it Now option and scheduled sales.  

I have never considered listing items at 99cents,  what is the point? 

Fact is ebay can charge what they like to keep their shareholders happy,  you need to use what is on offer to make it profitable for yourself.

Umm I dont see anyone holding a gun to your head to stay???

Do you actually have an issue with an ebay transaction we can assist you with or are you simply venting?

If you wish to vent, replies here are limited- you may find it more productive to go to the discussion boards to air your views 😞

hey thanks everyone, some real good comments there and yes thinking out of the square now, I didn't realise you could have more than one ID on here,nor did I realise we were getting 40 free listings either so that does help. so thank you all for your comments and help...kind regards and have a great day
