the truth is even though nobody will say it outloud is the glory days of selling & buying on here is over.

ebay up there fv fees to 9.9% and listing fees add up very quickly hench most sellers only use there free listings and stop after them.

aussie post cost have risen so much over the past few years on top of that paypal takes there % on total which gets paid into your account which includes a % of postage cost. so for a seller to sell there item and cover all the cost involved we have to start auctions at a much higher price hench bargins are few & far between. these times there is facebook that most places have now buy , swap & sell sections where you can get great buys and able to pick up so no postage cost.gumtree is an other so fact is why would a buyer pay nearly retail price for a listing here the add postage and the hassel of transactions that sadly sometimes go wrong. for sellers to again have a chance of selling fees need to be dropped example if fv fees stay at 9.9% then scrap the listing fees and give sellers a chance. many will not agree with this but you cant hide the facts that ebay just got to greedy and is killing off what was a great thing online buying & selling to what its now becoming to hard for sellers and with out sellers there will be no buyers.
