Dear Ebay- What is a seller worth really?

[paulsurf88]

Dear Ebay- 33%   of my last sale  for a whole $10. You do have to be joking by thinking adding in the cost of postage to your site will keep small sellers like myself  bothering to write decent ads, maintain a good standard for your site in honesty in listings, honesty in  everything really.

Item sold for $10-  it is a book I no longer really require, it has a worth to someone out there, the postage cost in 3kilo bag from Australia post was 13.40.

I added $1  to cover bubble  wrap, selotape and 10 days of time waiting for my listing to end...

Not much sells- but I use the FREE listings, only.

Ebay - fees are sitting at 2.42 - just for that one item, paypal then took 89c  of the 24.40 deposit into paypal,  lets imagine I withdraw that from paypal to pay for the bag at the PO  - then I will lose $1.50 for withdraw a sum less than $150...

I am scratching my head as to why I even bother,  and you have the hide to still list me as a power seller....

Us little people are worth nothing to you it seems, and I cannot imagine what you are taking in fees from bigger sellers.

Maybe not, i think there is some basketball team by that name, isn't there?

Though the Mods seem to get a bit cross if you refer to someone by anything other than their user ID (or a derrivitive of), not sure what their take on feedback numbers is though.

might ask em'?

BAWAHAHAHA!! I guess there are ways to get their attention. Most of them would probably get us in strife though.

I think you might be right about the basketball team, the name rings a bell.

San Francisco '49ers is a gridiron team.

I doubt there are any 69ers, but.

As a matter of fact Dave, there are... the California 69ers in basketball division 2.

[*crikey*mate*]

but are they any good?

Well Crikey, I've yet to come across one that wasn't.

Seriously though, their record so far this season is 44 wins, 9 losses and 3 ties (1st).
