DG, why so quick to judge? That's just the kind of overconfidence and shortsightedness in business that leads to real opportunities being missed!! Don't be a half-clued non-rhythmic bipedal, defied of all hard work against the cheap-ass! Too many of them already! Think long-term, take thy lesson, and support thy local, for the path to defamed is wide. Heed the lesson of the untwitted.

Dont be sarc-y  (In hindsight, I shoulda worked out a way to fit an N in there for snark). 

I see also that the OP's ID was registered in 2018, and the business has now sold, so they must be the original owner not the current owner. I wonder what the current owner would think of someone going around posting clueless and insulting diatribes on eBay using their business name?

I wouldn't care if the FVF was 25%.
It's cheap advertising and you only have to pay if there is a sale.

There are enough 'non-infringing' clues in my listings

to ensure most of my sales don't incur fees.

Ebay is a perfect billboard platform.

Gumtree is like a billboard saying "Thieves paradise".

C'mon...you can do better than this...it's not hard to find a thread where the OP posted before 2014.

"After many years in e-commerce, eBay has lost me many years ago as a seller and buyer."... then why are you still here having a whinge today ?

... and the new owners are now in Lancaster, Pennsylvania ?  Long way away from the sunny beaches of Queensland !

So...reading when the person you are replying to posted is not your strong suit
