Ebay - fees go up to 19% of listing price

 

  I just noticed a major hike in the fees to list items on Ebay.  I had
listed a few DVD's over the past month, and noticed the fees jumped.

 Including listing and final value, plus Paypal, to list a fixed price "buy
it now" listing costs 19% of the price you hopefully sell at - just barely
shy of 1/5.

  Man, I remember back when it was called Auctionweb, and it only cost a 10c
listing fee to sell things on there.

   How old are you, Al?

 


I'm too young for Medicare and too old for women to care, but I have a
good memory and was driving when I was 12. Cigarettes went up to a
quarter in vending machines and the pack had three pennies change
under the cellophane wrapper. (Have not smoked in many decades though.)

 


Now I'm REALLY mad.  I was gypped.  We only got two taped cents back.

Ah, the days of the 15 cent hamburger and nickel A and W rootbeer.
