To me, that's insane.
And if you don't offer free shipping, it's extremely difficult to make a sale, IME.

Yeah their fees are crazy as are some of their policies if you are a seller. I did spring cleanup every year and dumped a bunch of stuff at one point in time. Between the high fees and not being able to leave a buyer negative feedback anymore when they screw you over, it's not often I use ebay for much.
Most of the time anymore I just use Craigslist . I know every scam there is on there with buyers at this point. I just love the out of state text scam artists that say "I'll send you PayPal and have someone come over and pick the item up." Once you weed through those lowlifes, it's a good way to sell stuff and there are no fees.
