I Joined Ebay way back in 1997 . I'm one of the original customers. I sold an item this past weekend, and Ebay charged me 12.5% of my FInal Sale. I wasn't aware of this until after I completed my sale. Absolutely rediculous. Going forward, I will never sell anything on Ebay ever again. This is obsurd, and again , absolutely Unacceptable. I also feel bad for the people that sell items that are in expensive. If you sell something for 10$, and ebay gets 12.5% of this sale, and it costs the seller say - 5$ to ship the item to the buyer. . . . . WHAT ARE WE DOING HERE ? ! I Hope people learn from my post, and never use Ebay for Selling ! It's a complete rip off. It's not worth it. Trust me. I've been a customer since the beginning of Ebay.
