9.9 % final value fees

honestly 9.9 % final value fees  has killed off a lot of sellers as you just cant cover those cost on an item.

come on ebay at any one time there are millions of millions listings and even if only half of those listings sell wow what a great profit to ebay. please justify why final value fees are so high. because of high final value fees auctions are becoming a thing of the past. after all auctions are what kicked off ebay to what it is today. how can a seller sell an item cover the 9.9% final value fees plus if paid by paypal pay more fees and without free listings wow thats a lot to try an add onto an item then postage comes a factor on top of all this and to keep priced below b&m shops as to justify a buyer having to pay postage.

am i missing something here i cant sell items at a loss and thats what we are being forced to do to remain competive to others selling the same items. a fair final value % should be around 4 % max
