Thread: Done with ebay

Pixel , your just going to have to raise your rates to compensate. Call it the 10% e-bay compensation gouge and add it to shipping fee as handling. Us consumers should b**ch about it to e-bay for ya. If I thought it would do any good I would be all over it for you. Send me a petition I'll sign it.

wow i should have ben bidding on police auctions.

I agree with selling the items here or on etsy. Neither are auctions, but maybe the simple straight-forwardness will grow on you.

What about a subsection in the razor section that is specifically for non-restored razors?

Yes, ebay is expensive. It's even worse for me as I sell in $US and when I withdraw funds it has to get converted to $AUD and the exchange rate they use has no bearing to reality. Between ebay, Paypal and currency fees I usually budget for losing 20% of the sale price. On the plus side, it gives me access to buyers all around the world that are interested in buying what I'm selling. Without ebay I wouldn't be in the game so I also look at the fees as the cost of doing business.

Over the Christmas Holidays i sold off 5 of my straights on Kijiji. 2 of them i mailed off with no issues. The others i met with the buyers and got to talk about one of my favorate topics. I havent seen them turn up here on this website yet but im sure they will.
