Ebay --STOP CHEATING SELLERS, STOP STEALING FROM SELLERS

[truckeez]

  Now I have seen that their  "Final value fee "   THEFT  has  increased to over 10%   ,  its  flat out SSTEALING from sellers.

Getting the right boxes  to get the lowest shipping rate often means dumpster diving  Packing the items up and getting them to the shipping counter --and then having to cove the extra  of what the actual cost is  compared to  either the rate  the shipper gave--OR Ebays latest  scam  to cheat sellers,  this is all the hardest part of selling on ebay--and them thinking its  their right to steal over 10% of that shipping rate is as OFENSIVE as anything  involvint any transaction  on the internet.

Now they have HIJACKED the listing page and force sellers to use their auto estimator on shipping and flat out LIE --give  fake LOWBALL rates  that no shipper will  ship for,  because they expect us to now  pay  a %  of the shipping so they can have happy SPOILED ROTTEN Buyers,,,

  once agan  the seller  gets his legs  knocked out from under him  so the ebay  managers  in the bay  office can tell themselves they are being competitive with Jeff Bezos.

What final value fee has increased to over 10%? (Unless you, as a seller, have done something wrong.)

[truckeez]

you not examine your  monthly charges?    do you not know what "final value fee"  on shipping rates  is--??

ITS FLAT OUT THEFT.  what does  ebay have to do with a seller shipping his items  ----> NOT A **bleep** THING.

the second part--I did just notice that the edited the listing page  so the seller can  enter the actual cost of shipping an item,  but the option of offering    another shipping  service-- freight shipping  has still not  been  put back in place.

What does Pay Pal have to do with shipping your item?

They charge you a fee on the shipping amount you received also.

They both charge you a fee on the total amount, only difference is Ebay breaks it down in 2 charges

They started charging FVF for shipping (they hadn't before) in around March, 2011. One of the very few things that hasn't changed in all that time. Besides in Media cat's.
