The thing is, eBay.com.au actually admit that they make mistakes in their policies. For example:

"This increase has become necessary as the fee changes made earlier this year (most of which were reductions), incentivised more sellers than expected"

Their entire 'strategy' is nothing more than trial and error, with periodic massive swings to 'correct' their earlier blunders.

I guess now I can sit back and wait until one of their apologists shill dobs me in for not mindlessly agreeing 100% with everything they do here.

On the other hand, if eBay.com.au wants GOOD strategic advice from a marketing savvy buyer/seller of many years standing, get in touch.
