In the United States anyway, there is no law against making as much as
the market will bear, as long as it's honest. How much is too much in
your estimation?

I wish Ebay had some real competition.

No; Sorry, OM, but everyone has got this wrong.
Only inventory items in an *Ebay Store*, big-ticket industrial
items and automobiles get the price increase.
You and I as "casual sellers" do not see increases in anything
except "gallery" and we're compensated by bigger, better photos.

Folks- please go read the notice again.
I don't think anyone here is affected by this at all.

I think you are part true

I went and reread the notice.. and it's true, the way the notice is laid
out, it appears that the price increases apply only to Ebay Stores. Now, my
observation would be that there will be many ebay stores closing in order to
opt instead to be a regular seller, so as not to pay the nearly double fees.

Try this site. www.ebid.com or is it www.ebid.co.uk

Trouble is...ebay positions itself as a safe and honest place to do
business. Actually, it allows people like radio-mart to shill bid his own
auctions and end up with a "summer vacation" suspension, only to be
allowed to trade again.

Ebay's good far outweighs the bad, so it continues to be accepted by the
buying public. Where else can you buy a nice little radio like a Degen
1103 for under $70 shipped to your door.......nowhere. Where else can
gottahaveit1995 buy a radio for $100 and then two weeks later sell it as
radio-mart for $300?......nowhere.

When their fees get too high, another operation will come along. Ebay is
badly in need of competition. But, if they make billions in the meantime,
so much good for them....that is what built this nation and makes it a
great place to live.
