Do I need to pay ebay to give my inventory away????

[surfgato43]

Very disapointed

Stop accepting offers that don't cover your costs?

Acquire your inventory for less?

Agreed. Ebay is the epicenter of greed. 10% on collectibles. Outlandish. Ebay is the dichotomy of Liberalism and anti-American ideals.

There is NOTHING in this world that is more "American" than capitalism. 

Apparently you think capitalism is only acceptable when it's the sellers. Ebay is not allowed to capitalize on their market without being called un-American or greedy.

That makes no sense. It is no more wrong for Ebay to want to make money than it is for the sellers.

Huh? Since when is Capitalism "anti-American"??? Seriously? (Did I miss the jk tag or the LOL or the /sarcasm font somehow?)

Check around for cheaper sellers' fees.

You won't find any.

Did you ever check Stack's or Christies?

Seems to me you don't understand the word dichotomy. With your mentality, these would not be dichotomous, but instead united in theory and agreement. However one would also have to understand the words synonym and antonym. 

So if there's a problem selling your collectibles it is the fault of liberals? Thanks for the good laugh of the day. 

OP, I do not know the market on the shoes/purses but I do know that the sterling native American jewelry is priced higher than most of the current selling prices on ebay.

There are sites with lower fees ... and less traffic 🙂

I use some of them (eggs, basket, yadayada).

One could always open a B&M  or run their own website ... wait till they see the bills for that 🙂

Consignment Shop? That ain't cheap either.

There's always good old Craigslist ... meeting strange people in out of the way places and getting the offer for a Cashier's Check when their Associate picks up the item (with bonus for the inconvenience) 🙂

Yeah probably....SMH. 

[retrose1]

Here I figued that the OP was another victim of ebay's dispute policy tt says if the buyer complains and the seller doesn't refund them fast enough, ebay will do it for them.

And there are plenty of other sites with less fees than ebay.  I can sell 3 to 4 times more on another site than I do on ebay and still my ebay fees are more than theirs......And i pay to list on the other site.

Your titles, descriptions, and photos need work. How do you expect to sell a purse without putting the word “purse” in the title? And repeating photos to use all 12 slots will just make buyers wonder why you’re wasting their time.

Are you female? Because "handbag" has been the go to word for quite some time now.

Dare I venture down the road that takes us to the question of how Liberalism  = anti-American ideals?

Or, even more confusing, the proper use of "dichotomy" would indicate that Liberalism and anti-American ideals are opposites.

I'm so confused.  Think I'll go hit a little white ball in the warm sunshine ...
