There's a trend that's been going on which is quite horrible to be honest with you and eBay needs to put a stop to it real quick Remember back in the day when people used to do the $1 item $1,000 shipping scam? Well now we have the $1 item that's listed at $1,000. Literally. I'm seeing items that are anywhere from $1 in worth to $15 in worth and people are listing these items at $50 $100 $5,000 $50,000. You name it. I'm seeing it. I'm seeing complete junk that they're pulling out of a ditch with steel fresh dirt on these items listed as three times the price of the same item you find in the store brand new in the box with a warranty. I've contacted many of these sellers and ask them why they think their item is worth that much and why someone should bid on these items. As you would imagine I got a nasty reply and told me that I couldn't afford the item so just buzz off etc etc etc So this is the way I see it. If eBay continues to let these people relist infinitely forever without any repercussions eBay is going to turn into the biggest joke site of all time. In order to stop this all eBay has to do is put a fee on the relisting. Like for example let's start off at 10 or 15 cents to re-list after 7 days. After the 7 days have passed let's say another 7 days and bump it to $0.25. keep doing that on a graduation scale and people will end up taking the item down or they will lower the price until it's sold. EBay needs to specifically specify that in order to help sell the item we are going to charge a fee to have the seller lower the item until it sells. I don't think this is any worse than promoted listings to be honest with you. I'm sure everybody will have their opinion about it but I'm going to be honest here. I'm pretty sick of seeing these garbage items put on here and I really think eBay needs to do something about it So eBay I'm telling you right now please initiate a new fee scale for these infinite listings. It would benefit you greatly because you're going to make a small profit off of these realistings. Without this technique, you ain't arent anything in regards to income from these freeoading garbage lists..They are taking up precious bandwidth on your servers and taken up precious space on the search results week aafter week month after month. Many years after year.. It would benefit the potential buyers greatly because we don't want to see $5,000 packs of crackers. And if somebody wants to pay for $5,000 pack of crackers cool fine They could do so within 7 days or the price will lower to whatever the seller thinks is worth, but they need to lower it until they start getting bids. Or the listing gets taken down till they pay a relist fee . This is a logical method to getting these infinite realistic garbage auctions off of the website Thank you .
