Just received an email from eBay announcing there new “lower” fee structure.  Its pure crap.

They RAISED the final value fee by 3.5%!!  5.25% was already rediculous and now they want 8.75%?   WTF?  Yeah they lowered there insertion fees by 5 cents.  Wooopy doo dah.  They are still taking the money out of your pocket when it sells.

Another thing, as I read this I was reminded that they charge insertion fees for there stores.  What crap is that?  They also charge monthly fees.  I am sorry.. wait no I am not, if I am paying a monthly fee to have a store I want to not have to pay everytime I put a product in a store I am already paying for.  wow. 

They hid the fee increases by throwing in gallery for free.  Definately done with eBay.  I will probably still buy on there but I am definately NOT selling on there anymore.

Con artists of the century?  There new fee structure.
