Jump on the Leave Ebay Train

[th_killer_offerings]

Leaving due to the demands of my personal information in the form of a Social Security Number. Good ridden to 15% fees + 0.30 cents extra fee-higher-than-the-Paypal-fee-already-was + all the lying Ebay call center employees in India and the Philippines who said Ebay would refund me the $14.47 they STILL owe me for an overcharge on shipping. Taking my business elsewhere. Outta here permanently! 😝 Now bring on the Ebay shill replies and the deletion of this post.

I'm not an eBay shill, so I hope it's okay if I reply. You already posted this same content on another thread, so I'm not sure why you felt the need to create a brand new thread that says the same thing.

A cautionary tale:

When I went to get my COVID vaccine, they asked for my Social Security number. I said, "No way, man! Why would you need my Social Security number?" So, no vaccine for me! No siree, Bob. (I mean, if they're injecting a microchip anyway, why would they need my Social Security number, too?

Of course, now my options are limited because I'm not vaccinated. I can't take a commercial airline flight, I can't, in good conscience, forego a mask in public, I can't be in the audience of The Late Show with Stephen Colbert. So many missed opportunities.

Don't be like me.

Shrills, you say?  I think you want the echo chamber for that.

Okay. Bye!

Oh wow a free stalker Vaccine Shill instead! All the more reason to leave.

Missing a TV show? Oh what a poor victim you are.

A cautionary tale: So many missed opportunities when you don't read books. Hey, you can buy them at inflated prices right here on ebay.

Despite what all the preteen cheerleaders will shriek,  you are not the only one and certainly will not be last. It's amazing how when they have no intelligent response to your facts, they have to resort to childish behavior. They will never debate with any thought before they spew, which shows how they've lost before they even began.   ebay has become just like all the rest and the cheerleaders are so proud to inform you of that.  We all remember when ebay was the leader that the others wished to be like. Now they seem to think going backward is the right direction to take.

Thanks for the normal and intelligent human reply. Not only are they shrieking, according to the likes of chapeau-noir (Black Hat) above, they're "shrilling" in fear at the number of sellers leaving Feebay. Yes, they resort to the not only childish, but very old and tired Soviet tactic of snarky sarcasm out of sheer (or shill) desperation. Last laugh is on Feebay's dwindling numbers and the Norwegian company Adyen who is in charge of their "Managed Payments" system. Yes, foolish future ebayers - your financial info will be in the hands of foreign bankers. 🙂

Yes - all sellers should leave eBay now! Run - do not walk. Besides the fees and personal information requests, eBay's fee on shipping and taxes is not just a transaction fee rate but makes them a profit off the shipping and taxes. eBay could have a lower fee to only cover their transaction COST on tax and shipping  (at lease shipping purchased through eBay Shipping) and leave their profit rate to only the item being sold plus shipping above that actually paid through eBay Shipping.  I've also noticed over the past year with increased sellers, unique items aren't so unique and more items show up in searches with lower prices then previous years.

I'll make the sacrifice and stick around for eBay reconnaissance. Look for my message. I will let you know when the government drops eBay tax reporting requirements, eBay brings back PayPal options, eBay drops fee rates, eBay selling improves and/or other important eBay developments.

Look for your local flea market or tag sales. I bet your going to see more and more are going back to the old way where you actually get to keep your money and don't have to ship or pay the almighty bay etc. It might be an eye opener.
