Ok, I sell on eBay. Nothing huge, just one product, about 10 a month or so. Most through my website.

Well today, eBay decided to stick it to us with a 67% Increase in Final Value Fees. yes 67%.

Fees go up from 5.25% to 8.75% of selling price...So how do sellers tell ebay how they feel... They start an auction of course.

I bid but got a bit outbid. Mine was in the $2.00 range.

Here is the Auction:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...75#description

Bidding is currently up to $1,000,600.00

The Thread is also in the Seller Central Forum.

Make sure on the Auction you read the questions and answers section... Priceless.

Oh and spread it around, we're all pissed.

Also Sellers can only leave Positive Feedback, no Negative feedback for buyers, ever....

EDIT: Up over 96 million now..... Take That FeeBay......
BTW- Buyer and seller can agree to not sell, and ebay only gets listing fee. Too Funny.....
