eBay Introduces New Listing Type

I dont get where you get the 8% ... they raised all the final value fee's for this new fixed price 30 day option ... was 8.5% now its 12% for items that are sold between $1.00 - $50.00 and if its over $50.00 the price was 3.5% but goes way up to 9%!!!!!!!!! ... you think this is a good deal? are you serious? this is just plain robbery for people that auctually sell items, its great for a person that wants to list a bunch of non-selling items and clog up Ebay with no sell through and thats what will happen, Ebay will lose money here, they will get a bunch of listings that dont sell, people will put stuff on with such high prices that if they do sell they wont care because they will be able to afford the fee's, this will take the bargain out of Ebay and make it super expensive to buy from, as soon as these new 30 day fixed priced items come online its going to be sad sad sad ... I mean if you look at all Ebays models on this they assume you would have to relist your fixed price auction 3 times before you sell it, then its cheaper ... who wants to list items for 3 times before they are sold? ... most likely if its taking you almost a month to sell your items you are either pricing it too high or its not an item in demand and most likely not worth selling, plus Ebay sell through has gone way way down since the new Best Match came into effect, that was a major boon for them and whoever thought that was a good idea to lead customers around by the nose and only show them what Ebay thinks they should want is just a moron.

At These Prices, eBay Is a Steal

Won't these idiots learn? ... Higher Taxes in a Country is the same thing as these idiots are doing (Ebay listing and final value fee's) SLOW GROWTH and shrink the competition, thus less selection higher selling prices by the ones that actually stay ... All I ever hear is about the buyers buyers buyers, Hey Donahoe the buyers will come if they can get a deal, thats what auctions and Flea Markets are all about ... Also when you only want to be like every other site on the internet, Amazon, Buy, Overstock, you shoot yourself in the foot, what makes Ebay stand out then? not a damn thing! ... the small sellers are the key to Ebay because you cannot get the quirky selection of goods from a big seller, thus again you then give up the market you owned 100% of ... no instead you want to be like every other E-Commerce site ... now market share goes down to what? 1% if you are lucky, are you stupid or what??????
