Greedy little buggers...Ebay charges going up again!

Jeez...don't they make enough money already?

And this is a BIG GREEDY CHANGE On September 1, the second of the two price hikes will come into effect. Users who successfully sell their items currently have to give 10pc of the final value (including postage and packaging) to eBay. This will remain the same, but the cap on the final value fee will rise from £75 to £250. This means those who sell higher value items will pay a lot more.

Re:

Pinkbike? Gumtree? RB? STW? I guess if you want top dollar and max exposure it has to be ebay

Re: Re:

..this fall.

The Fall are a very good band.

I don't sell so much on Ebay any more, but surely for bike deals there are many alternatives?
