So after being a buyer for many years, decided to sell something..... never again
Between eBay and Paypal you are skinned of between 12.5-15% of your sale value.
Has to be a bet options than make these fat cats fatter,
Out of here.
Yes, there is. Advertise in the paper (then you will REALLY have something to whinge about when you get the bill, especially if you add several photos).
None of us like the fees. Yes, they suck, but when you look at what it costs to advertise in the paper or the cost to put them through an auction that is not online, they don't seem that bad. You could try a garage sale, but to get the prices you were asking for your items, ain't going to happen. The other option is Quicksales, but no-one's doing any good over there because the buyers don't go there.
Most sellers add the fees into their price of the item, so the buyer is paying the fees, not the seller. That way, it effectively costs you nothing.
Good luck.
