eBay changes anger smaller sellers

Better than eBay

I have a set of Shure SE530PTh earphones that I was going to grudgingly put on eBay yesterday, but I was loathe to give them such high fees, risk my goods to dodgy buyers only then to have PayPal come along and also take a chunk of my money.

So I put them on AVForums instead where at least I know there are more trustworthy people who share same interests as me.

I've just accepted an offer made to me. I don't have to pay anyone any fees and the money will be transferred directly in to my account. Totally hassle free.

So yes, there are other ways to sell eBay, you will not be missed by me!!

eBay is turning into a joke now. They're excluding the people who made them huge profits during their start period and now looking at making quick large profits.

Well they can fuck right off.

I think it'd be really cool if we could have some sort of mass eBay protest and users just ignore eBay for a week. That ought to give them a good kick in the nuts. And if they don't change their greedy attitude then there are plenty other options to eBay.
