Business & Finance

Last time i bought a phone from eBay but today when i tried buying from the same seller it seem the seller account is blocked. It’s starange because this seller had 100% Feedack but sellers like e-cell with so many negative feedbacks are still trading!
Also eBay seller fee is too high, not many people realise untill they sell something that eBay charge £38 for £335 phone and £16 for PayPal. Are we about to see the end of eBay??

no............ i still shop on eBay.. its the best place to shop what are you talking about >.<

i know the seller free is so Flipping high but you get money for your JUNK...

for the serious sellers iono... they're doing fine.. they still refund you the money and everything..

But before eBay.. i always use Craiglist.. much cheaper buying.. but not so great selling...

- here's my example..
- i just bought a $250 blackberry 9700 off Craiglist...
- on eBay.. the cheapest price i can get it w/ sniping.. is $330 + tax (depend on users) for the same phone... so even with the extreme fee.. you still get more money if you were dealing any other place... Oh btw average price for that phone is $410

but the delima is craiglist is kinda dangerous, and they can scam you... but so can ebay sellers..

Looking at your other question it appears you have a bit of a grudge with ebay and paypal.

Yes ebay is expensive to the occaisional seller of unwanted items the average is 10% of the sale plus listing fee and any other additional fees like theme templates, scheduled listing etc.

Now for businesses ebay can and has proved to be a fast easy way to put their products in front of a worldwide fully global audience, compare that to a high street shop that will cost considerably more, ebay will continue to grow and expand because people know it is the biggest online shopping center on the internet.

There are many ways to save money using ebay, and all you need to do is spend time learning about them to make the most out of your ebay experience.

I think that ebay have outgrown their own boots and belive the are a law all to themselves. They no longer offer the service they used to, they might as well be amazon or play auction house now as most sellers are selling items at the same or higher prices. Its just not worth bidding on an item anymore that will sell on ebay for £40 that you can get on the high street for £35
