I couldn't imagine selling a vehicle on there now.

they totally revamped how they charge vehicle auctions.
If you list the a vehicle it costs you $40.00 if it sells it costs you an extra $50.00.
So $90 if it sells isn't really that bad if you ask me.
Fee listing for motor vehicles.

Didn't realize that. :HYF: Not too bad then I guess. :)

I agree.
Do you know how much those nerdy engineers make who came up with the search algorithms so that when you pay $40.00 some one will actully look at your ad?

I would love to see how they program something like that. That stuff fascinates me. :cool2:

they keep raising their prices and eventually they will price themselves right out of business.
I have noticed lately stuff is not selling on ebay like it used too.I know my stuff is not.
Also in some categories does not seem to be as much stuff on there.Which is more than likely becuase of the price increases.
They are always offering 1 dale listing sales on everything except ebay motors categories,which is what I sell in.How stupid are they?If they would reduce their everyday prices instead of rasing them they would still be getting the listings and making the money.Yes the GREED will take care of ebay.

I buy stuff all the time, but selling is getting to cost more than it's worth. By the time you pay Ebay fees and then Paypal fees, it just isn't worth the cost.

Due to the increase in price I am sure you will se a decrease in No Reserve Auctions. That way they seller can in turn just pass the price to the buyer.

Must be run by Republicans. :rolleyes:

im not excited about ebay final value fees rising either....

you did forget to mention that they lowered listing & gallery fees....

you still can't go wrong...

ebay will outsell craigs list almost anyday of the week on most things....

i'd gladley pay $200 "really isn't that much" to move a $10k to $15K vehicle within 7 days anytime...
